BUFFALO, NY – The University at Buffalo women's swimming and diving team (0-0, 0-0 MAC) are ready to host MAC foe Ball State (0-0, 0-0 MAC) this weekend. The meet will start at noon on Saturday, Oct. 26 as the Bulls will look to get their first win of the season. The teams' last dual meet came in the 2017-18 season with Buffalo claiming the 212-88 win.
The Bulls will face the Ball State Cardinals who were selected to finish seventh in the MAC preseason coaches' poll. The Cardinals finished in eighth place at the 2019 MAC Championships.
Buffalo enters Saturday's contest fresh off a dominant start to the season. Last Saturday, in the 18 events held in the quad meet against Cornell, Bowling Green and Eastern Michigan, the Bulls had at least one Bull finish in the top-three in 16 of the events. This also included nine events with two Bulls finishing in the top-three. Brittney Beetcher was named the Bulls' swimmer of the week as she helped the squad to three victories of her five events. She claimed victories in the 500 freestyle, 400 IM and the 400 freestyle relay. Freshman diver Victoria Franz claimed first place in the 1-meter diving event with a score of 286.35. In the 3-meter dive, she finished in second place with a score of 271.70. To top off her first collegiate meet, she qualified for the NCAA Diving Zones.

Looking ahead, the Bulls will travel to Oxford, Ohio as they will face off against Miami University of Ohio. The meet is set to start at 11 a.m. at the Corwin M. Nixon Aquatic Center.
