Laramie, Wyo. ââ'¬" The University of Denver men's swimming and diving team competed against the University of Wyoming on Friday in their first dual meet of the season.
"I was very happy with how our team raced," assistant coach Michael Hulme said. "Attitude and efforts were great across the board, which says a lot about where our team's culture is. It was a tough environment swimming a non-scored meet at over 7,000 feet, and it was great to see the guys respond like they did."
