Thursday was moving day for the Auburn women’s swimming and diving team as the Tigers moved from ninth place to fifth with a day full of solid swims. Auburn came into the night with 217.5 points and left the Mizzou Aquatic Center with 354.5 points. The men’s team saw the gap between it and Florida widen but the Tigers remain in second place, 54 points behind.
“This morning in our meeting we talked about how we had seven girls that had not raced individually yet as of last night; six of those girls scored points for us tonight and the seventh swam faster than she’s ever swum while at Auburn,” Associate head coach for women Lauren Hancock said.
