NC State v UVA v UNC was one of the, if not the, rowdiest NCAA Swimming dual meets I’ve ever seen.

    It was an emotional day for the women’s swim team at Loyola Marymount University after learning they were among several sports programs being cut after this season.

    The team hosted their final home meet this weekend.

    “It’s been an emotional rollercoaster,” said Abby Shaw, captain of the team. “They paraded us in with a tunnel of fans and gave us baskets, made us posters and so that was really heartwarming. But then it kicked in – oh my gosh, it’s senior day and it’s everyone’s last day. So that’s really emotional and really sad.”

    Women’s swimming is one of six sports programs that LMU is discontinuing at the end of the 2023-24 season.

    Santa Clara’s famous International Swim Center was abruptly shut down by the city about two weeks ago, leaving hundreds of swimmers in a lurch.

    Many thought it was the end of the center, but now it seems there’s a last chance to save it.

    The ISC was once the hub of the swim world, with numerous famous athletes such as Mark Spitz and Donna De Varona training there, as well as the synchronized swim team.

    But the ISC has not been as world class for some time — as the 60-year old facility became so run down, it was finally closed on Jan. 12.
