HEAD COACH SERGIO LOPEZ MIRO
"We are very excited to host and swim against Penn State. In last week's competition against UVA, we swam pretty well. We have continued our heavy training, preparing for ACC's. I am excited to see how we react and perform against a good team like Penn State."
 
LAST TIME OUT 
The Hokies and the Nittany Lions met earlier in the season when Virginia Tech travelled to Columbus, Ohio to battle Ohio State, Indiana, and Penn State back in October.

On the women's side, Karisa Franz, Caroline Bentz, and Reka Gyorgy all had strong performances, all swimming some of the fastest times in the country.
