It was the second medal of the night for both Antoniou and Dupre went one-two in the 50 freestyle, with Antoniou winning in a time of 21.69, while Dupre went 21.82.

Both tied for the top seed tonight in the 100 free. With 1 other girl finalling in this event, our 400 free relay tonight is looking skrong. Finally have a diver in the finals tonight as well. We may actually be able to sneak by UGA for 3rd. 4th wouldn't disappoint me much. It has been a pretty good meet for our girls.

Women’s tennis today at - you guessed it - 1 pm. So it’s in direct competition with baseball, softball, and women’s basketball. If women’s tennis is your sport of choice, looks like you can watch a video stream today:

Men’s wheelchair basketball takes down the barn!

Game one: Bama 72 auburn 55

For the ladies’ Crimson and White game:

The website is not easy to navigate (I think they must rely more on social media) so I can’t tell what’s next. Live streams are available for most games on:

Man... it's hard to read under a regime change. I absolutely adored the work our last coaches did, not even gonna hide my bias. I think coley and Ozzie were gonna be good for our results, but got thrown a curveball. I have less faith in our next coach, being entirely unproven. Bated breathe is my best description before our men swim at SECs. Cautiously optimistic we can maintain top 12 type success, with Saban aura shining on everyone.

I feel our women have made marked improvements in the last 20 months. Hoping it balances out, but I'm willing to accept to be the lesser program lol. Top 15 team is beyond acceptable to me, as a realist. Multiple top 10s by the men has been ecstatic.

After dropping the doubles point and No. 5 singles to the Gamecocks to go down 0-2, Alabama rallied with straight-set wins from Alba Cortina Pou at No. 4 and Sydney Riley at No. 6 Moka Ito stretched No. 34-ranked Mia Horvit to three sets, while Sasha Gorchanyuk forced No. 30 Megan Davies to extra games in both her sets.

Alabama Men’s Swimming Opens SEC Championships Tuesday in Columbia

This season marks the first time since the mid-80s that the men and women swimmers have competed at separate sites, with the women competing last week in Athens, Ga., while the men’s and women’s diver competed last week in Columbia, Mo.


COLUMBIA, Mo. – The Alabama men's swimmers get the Southeastern Conference Swimming and Diving Championships underway Tuesday in Columbia, Mo.

The women's portion of the championships finished last Saturday, with the Crimson Tide posting its best finished since 2003, taking fourth place. The men's diving squad has also completed competition, with Kevin Li leading Alabama with an eighth-place finish off the 1-meter board.

This season marks the first time since 1986 that the men's and women's meets are being held at different sites and different weeks.

With fewer swimmers at each site, the meet has contracted from five days to four. The men's meet starts Tuesday at 5 p.m. CT with the 200 medley and 800 freestyle relays, before beginning a full slate of events on Wednesday with prelims starting at 10 a.m. CT and finals at 6 p.m. CT.

Interim Head Coach Ozzie Quevedo Said
"After watching the women's meet and the diving last week and how well the Crimson Tide competed over those four days, our men are hungry to get out there and lay it all on the line. We're super proud of how the women and the divers did last week, and we can't wait to keep that success rolling here in Columbia. Just like with the women last week, this is a different look and feel for this championship, but we are beyond grateful to have the opportunity to compete and take part in one of the fastest meets in the nation each year."

Going to the 'Ship
A total of 13 men are making a return trip to the SEC Championships this week, including Jonathan Berneburg, Cole Brown, Nicholas Perera, Nico Perner, Colton Stogner, Cam Auerbach, Liam Bell, Derek Maas, Matt Menke, Riley VanMeter, Cade Auerbach, Sam DiSette and Alex Robinson

The Crimson Tide's 2021 roster also includes seven men who are making their first trip to the SEC Championships - Matt King, Jake Marcum, Christopher O'Connor, Kacper Piotrowski, Andrew Shea, Trey Sheils and Eric Stelmar

20 members of the Tide's roster will be in Columbia this week for the swimming portion of the championships, while two –Hunter Jaynes and Kevin Li – competed last week in the diving events in Columbia

Li scored in all three diving events, taking eighth off the 1-meter springboard, 12th off the platform and 13th off the 3-meter springboard

Jaynes scored off the 1-meter, taking 24th, and off the platform, taking 20th

What in the world happened to Auburn's swim dynasty? I am considering this a win versus the barn. So we have dominated them in all sports in the 20-21 academic year so far. Let's hope softball and baseball continue that
