FRESNO, Calif. - The women's swimming team will head to the California coast this weekend, to face the Mustangs of Cal Poly and the Matadors of Cal State Northridge, a Big West foe, in the Third Annual Mustang Invitational hosted by Cal Poly at Sinsheimer Park. The meet begins at 10 a.m. on Friday and resumes at 9 a.m. on Saturday.
"I am so excited to see how the girls do this weekend," said head coach Jeanne Fleck. "We are resting a little for the meet so I think we should end up getting a lot of best times. It will be fun to see what they do."
The Lady Mustangs enter this weekend's invitational with a record of 2-8. They are hosting Fresno State and Northridge in their first home meet of the season and last meet of 2008. The Matadors are 0-4 and coming off a 16th place finish at the Nike Cup in Long Beach, Calif.
The Bulldogs enter their second collegiate invitational of the year and lost to Boise State Nov. 15 in their last meet. Two Bulldogs, junior Mary Tess Taylor in the 1000 freestyle and freshman Heidi Gjoen in the backstroke events, performed well for the Dogs against the Broncos.
This is the first meeting between Cal Poly and Fresno State since 2003, when the `Dogs won 184-59.
