WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue swimming & diving's annual rivalry dual with Indiana coincides with Senior Day at the Morgan J. Burke Aquatic Center again as the Boilermakers host their final co-ed home meet of the season.
Action begins at 10 a.m. ET. The Senior Day ceremony is set for 9:40 a.m. as 19 student-athletes and two members of the support staff are recognized for their contributions to Purdue swimming & diving. The university's renowned Big Bass Drum will be on deck as part of the ceremony.
All-Americans and Purdue graduates Maggie Merriman and Nick Sherman will also be recognized briefly to open the ceremony, honoring their continued commitment to the Boilermakers as fifth-year student-athletes. Beavon, Bowen and Vieta are planning to follow in their footsteps as fifth-years next season.
