The No. 7-ranked Texas A&M women’s swimming and diving team will open the 2017 portion of its schedule with a dual meet against North Texas on Wednesday and then a weekend trip to Austin for the 2017 Arena Pro Swim Series.
The Aggies will host the Mean Green in a 3 p.m. dual meet at the Student Recreation Center on the Texas A&M campus. Texas A&M competes in the Arena Pro Swim Series Friday through Sunday at the Jamail Texas Swim Center on the University of Texas campus.
The 4-1 Aggies were slated to open their spring season against the Auburn Tigers on January 7 in Auburn, Ala., but weather and travel issues forced a cancellation of the contest. The last time the Aggies were in the water in a competitive setting was in a victory over Rice on Dec. 3.
Entering the North Texas dual, the Aggies have nine swimmers ranked in the top 25 nationally in 11 races:
