The weekend of Nov. 4-5 sends the CSUB divers to the USC Invitational while the swimmers head to Stockton for a quad against Air Force, Pacific, and Seattle University.
Both teams are home again Friday, Nov. 11 when the Roadrunners host UC Santa Cruz. The first half of the season wraps up with the Trtion Classic Nov. 17-19 and the AT&T Short Course Nationals (in Atlanta, Ga.) Dec. 1-3.

The MPSF Swimming and Diving Championships will be contested Wednesday Feb. 15-18. The swimming portion of the league meet will be held in Long Beach, Calif. while the diving meet will be conducted at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo.
The on the men's side, the MPSF adds Air Force, BYU, Denver, Hawaii, UNLV, and Wyoming to the league while BYU joins the women's action.
HANSEN ON THE MEN'S SCHEDULE
“The MPSF is a week earlier this year, so we had to drop Stanford and Cal, due to our taper, we will pick them back up next year. I am psyched to add USC and Air Force. The addition of UNLV, Air Force, Wyoming, BYU, Denver and Hawaii has made MPSF one of the strongest swimming conference.
HANSEN ON THE WOMEN'S SCHEDULE
“The women have added Air Force to our dual meet schedule. I hope to add more top teams in the future. BYU has joined the MPSF. making it a 10-team conference. We hope to start climbing the MPSF rankings this year.”
