Swim / Dive Ranked No. 24 in CSCAA Poll

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — The Miami Hurricanes women’s swimming & diving team checked in at No. 24 in the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) October poll released Thursday.

The committee, consisting of Division I coaches, evaluates and ranks the nation’s top 25 dual meet teams. Their assessment considers head-to-head dual meet outcomes, recent performances since the last rankings, season-long results, dual meet records, roster changes (such as injuries), and data from the SwimCloud Simulator.

The Hurricanes (1-0) most recently finished in fourth place at the SMU Classic, where they impressed over the two-day meet from Oct. 11-12.

Giulia Carvalho and Mia Vallée swept the ACC weekly awards after the event, with Carvalho posting three individual wins – all in NCAA ‘B’ cut fashion – and Vallée winning both the 1-meter and 3-meter springboard.

The Hurricanes also saw Ashlyn Massey post the school record in the 200-tyard butterfly, Marissa Inouye finish with the third-fastest time in program history in the 400-yard IM and veteran Emma Sundstrand add the eighth fastest-time in the same event.

Miami continues its season on Friday, Oct. 25 with Rutgers and SMU. Action is set to begin from 1 p.m. at the Whitten Pool.
