Women's Swim & Dive Opens 2021 by Hosting Two-Day Quad-Meet

USAFA, Colo. -- The Air Force Academy women's swimming and diving team begins the spring portion of the 2020-21 regular season when it returns to the Cadet Natatorium for a two-day quad-meet, Friday-Saturday, Jan. 8-9. The Falcons will play host to Northern Colorado, Colorado Mesa, and the Colorado School of Mines.
