Pepperdine Women’s Swim and Dive team took second at this year’s conference after a season of increased intensity and improved swim times.
The team underwent a staff overhaul this year when long-term head coach Nick Rodionoff left the program after nearly 20 seasons. The new head coach, Joe Spahn said he increased practice times and upped the rigor of workouts, leading to renewed hope and a second place trophy at this year’s conference.
“We’re definitely building up to be a better team than I think this school’s ever seen,” Spahn said.
