LAST TIME OUT: Denver's men's and women's teams had a successful two-meet weekend in Bakersfield last week. The Denver men would have won the CSUB Sprint Classic had diving been included, but were scored second in the Friday event before winning Saturday's Roadrunner Invite. DU's women swept both events on the weekend heading into this week's first dual match-ups of the season. FRIDAY RECAP | SATURDAY RECAP
