Swimming & Diving Team
11/21/2009 - Tennessee Invitational
After moving out of the historic Student Aquatic Center into the new state-of-the-art Allan Jones Intercollegiate Aquatic Center, the Vols' swimming and diving team had to start replacing more than forty years of memories. The last-minute Vol win during the 2009 Tennessee Invitational will definitely be a day that is remembered.
Entering the final day, The Big Orange trailed Kentucky by 10 points and faced two possibilities: snapping a 50-year winning streak over the Wildcats and losing their first meet in the new pool. But the Vols pulled out a win during the last event. Tennessee finished in first place with a score of 872.50, Kentucky in second with 868.50 points, Alabama in third with 840 points and Virginia Tech in fourth with 598 points.
