WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue Swimming & Diving closes out its dual schedule with a split-site, two-day meet, taking on Minnesota and Northwestern at the annual Big Ten Triple Duals.

It’s Northwestern turn to host this season in the three-year rotation, with events set for Friday at 6 p.m. and Saturday at noon ET at the Norris Aquatics Center in Evanston.

Earlier this month, the diving coaches elected to move the diving events to West Lafayette so that platform diving could be featured (Northwestern does not have a diving tower). At the Morgan J. Burke Aquatic Center, platform will be contested Friday at 3 p.m. Late this week, 3-meter replaced 1-meter as the scored event contested Saturday at 10 a.m. Divers that choose to compete on 1-meter as an exhibition event will do as part of Friday’s session.

The diving results will added to the team scores accumulated among the swimming events contested in Evanston this weekend.

The Purdue men have three Chicagoland natives – Dylan Burau (Wheaton/Wheaton Warrenville South), Biko Hooper-Haviland (Chicago/St. Ignatius) and Andy Kelly (Wilmette/Loyola Academy) – returning home this weekend as part of the trip to Evanston.

As is customary at the Big Ten Triple Duals, all events contested at the Big Ten and NCAA Championships except the 1650 freestyle and 400 medley relay will be featured. There will be two heats of all swimming events and lane assignments have been designated for all three teams.

When Minnesota hosted the Big Ten Triple Duals last season, Abby Marcuakitis eclipsed the Purdue record in the 200 backstroke while winning the event. Avery Worobel swept the springboard diving events and set a team freshman record on 1-meter in the process. She was recognized as the Big Ten Diver and Freshman of the Week a few days later.

The Boilermakers swept a triple dual in the fall vs. Oakland and Cincinnati over Halloween Weekend in Rochester, Michigan. Purdue is a combined 9-3 in dual meets this season. The last time Northwestern hosted the Big Ten Triple Duals/Quad in 2023, the Purdue men posted a win against the host Wildcats and the Purdue women were victorious against Iowa.
