While spectators were not allowed at the Feb. 15-17 CCSA Championships at the Liberty Natatorium, the university’s women’s swimming & diving team still savored the cozy confines of its home environs as it captured a share of a fourth team title.
The facility was christened in January 2018, and a year later, the Lady Flames became the first program in CCSA history to host a championship meet on campus. In its first few years, the 75,000-square-foot natatorium has become a prime venue for collegiate swimming and diving, standing out in the crowd as one of the few facilities in the nation with an Olympic-distance competition pool and separate 17-foot-deep diving well.
