COLUMBIA, Mo.- The Missouri men's and women's swimming and diving teams return to action this Saturday in Tempe, Ariz. when they will take on the University of Wyoming in a dual meet at Arizona State University. The meet was added to the Tigers' schedule last month. Missouri is training at ASU this week and will return to Columbia on Jan. 11.

Saturday's meet is one of huge significance for Missouri Head Coach Brian Hoffer. With a win by both the men and women, Hoffer will hit the 100-win plateau for his career. What makes things more ironic is that Phoenix, Ariz. is Hoffer's hometown and Arizona State is his alma mater. Hoffer graduated from ASU and spent seven years as an assistant coach on the Sun Devils' staff.
