BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – No. 5/13 Indiana swimming and diving punctuated a perfect rivalry week for IU athletics, claiming two wins against Purdue Saturday (Jan. 22) inside Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatic Center.

The Hoosier men improved to a perfect 8-0 this season while winning their 14th straight dual meet, a streak going back to 2019. IU's women's team got back in the win column, moving to 6-2. IU men's swimming and diving has won 12 consecutive meets against Purdue going back to the 2010-11 season, while the women's team is 11-0 since 2011-12.

"It's always super important to come away with wins against Purdue," IU head swimming coach Ray Looze said. "Our teams did a great job of that today. I thought it was a dominant performance from both squads, and I couldn't be happier for the seniors. We want to dedicate this meet to them because in athletics today, to start and finish at the same institution, to me, is hugely important, and I want to recognize it and celebrate it. So, these two wins are dedicated to our senior class."

IU Diving continued its strong season, winning three of four events.

"It was another great showing for the Hoosier divers," head diving coach Drew Johansen said. "It was a great day for all our seniors, and Tarrin [Gilliland] was fantastic on the women's side. Andrew [Capobianco], Carson [Tyler] and Quinn [Henninger] handled the challenge from the Purdue men well. The whole team is tracking well for the postseason."
