South Dakota will host the Summit League Swimming and Diving Championships for the second-straight season.

The meet will be held Feb. 20-23 at the Midco® Aquatic Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

The Coyote men’s swimming and diving team finished runner-up in 2018, the program’s highest finish in Summit League history. The USD women have placed in the top four every year since 2014.

The Coyotes were initially scheduled to host the 2019 Summit League Indoor Track & Field Championships on Hillenbrand Track inside the DakotaDome. However, DakotaDome renovations will begin following the conclusion of the 2018 football season. Due to the renovations, USD and SDSU agreed to swap championships which fall on the same weekend.
