LAS CRUCES, N.M. (Dec. 20)-The New Mexico State swimming and diving team has jumped a spot to No. 17 in the latest CSCAA/CollegeSwimming.com Mid-Major poll.

“We had a great fall and I am really excited to see where things end up in February,” head coach Rick Pratt said. “This is a hard working group and to get some recognition for their sacrifices is nice.”

The Aggies were ranked despite not having a rest and shave meet this fall. NM State concluded the fall semester with a second-place finish in the UNLV Winter Invitational, Dec. 11-13. The Aggies return to the pool at Northern Colorado, Jan. 21.
