With an impressive performance at the Georgia Invitational two weeks ago, the Golden Gopher women's swimming and diving team entered into the College Swim Coaches Association poll, announced today. The Gophers are ranked No. 24 for the first time since last season.
Athough dropping to No. 1 Georgia and then-No. 9 California at the Georgia Invite, the Gophers defeated ranked opponents in No. 21 Notre Dame and No. 22 Florida State, who finished fourth and fifth overall. Minnesota added a third-place finish.
Minnesota is one of six teams in the Big Ten to earn spots in the poll. Wisconsin is ranked 10th, followed by No. 13 Michigan, No. 14 Penn State and No. 20 Purdue. Indiana is ranked 25th, while Northwestern is receiving votes.
