MOSCOW, Idaho – The New Mexico State women's swimming and diving came up shy of the victory as it fell to Idaho, 181.5-118.5, on Friday evening at the UI Swim Center.
"It was a long trip to get beat like that," head coach
Rick Pratt said. "Our team learned some valuable lessons in the process. Idaho was ready to go and we were a little flat. Our divers rebounded well on 1m and Hauff had a strong day qualifying for zones on both boards. We've had a couple of months of heavy training, which is going to pay off in the long run. For now, we've got to recovery and get fresh for NAU in our two-day home meet."
