TEMPE, Ariz. – This weekend, the No. 22 Arizona State women's swim/dive team and the Sun Devil men's dive team (part of the No. 7 men's squad) head north to Federal Way, Wash. for the 2018 Pac-12 Women's Swimming and Men's/Women's Diving Championships (Feb. 21-24).
All events Wednesday-Friday and Saturday's prelims will be live streamed on Pac-12.com and the Pac-12 Now app while Saturday's finals will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Network (6:30 pm PT/7:30 pm MT) as well as pac-12.com/now or the Pac-12 Now app.
The Sun Devils look to improve upon and continue to add to their Pac-12 championship tally, returning defending Pac-12 champions in Silja Kansakoski (100 breast) and Mara Aiacoboae (platform) for the women. At the 2017 championships, Kansakoski set two school records over the weekend in both breaststroke events.
Last season, Sun Devil men's diving earned two podium finishes as Youssef Selim (men's dive) finished second in the 1-meter while Heikki Makikallio finished third in the 3-meter.
In the final CSCAA poll of the season, the Arizona State women moved into the top-25 after defeating Arizona for the first time in 25 years. The final men's poll will be released this week but the Sun Devil men are currently No. 7 (as of Feb. 19) and defeated the Wildcats for the second time in three years after a drought of nearly 15 vs. U of A.
The men's diving totals will be added to next week's men's swimming championship totals in order to determine a men's team crown. For both teams, the higher finisher between ASU and Arizona will win one of two Territorial Cup Series points up for grabs.
