The Valparaiso University swimming and diving teams will compete at home in the Athletics-Recreation Center four times in 2006-2007 as head coach Bryan Morrison announced the season's schedule.

The team will dive into the season on October 6 as the Crusaders compete at the Dennis Stark Relays in Notre Dame, Ind. Following a quadrangular meet at Butler, the Brown and Gold will open the home campaign on October 20 against Xavier (Ohio).

The Crusaders will also get visits from UW-Green Bay, UW-Milwaukee, and UIC, all future Horizon League members, at the ARC pool.

Valpo will also swim at the Eastern Illinois Invitational and the House of Champions Invitational in Indianapolis in preparation of the Mid-Continent Conference Championships, held February 15-17 in Indianapolis.
