Iowa Swimming and Diving celebrates Senior Night this Friday as the Hawkeyes host St. Thomas at the Campus Wellness and Recreation Center.

Iowa enters the meet 3–3 overall and 2–2 in Big Ten duals, coming off big wins over Illinois and Nebraska in what has been a record-setting season under head coach Nathan Mundt and diving coach Todd Waikel.

Senior diver Lainey Woodward and junior standout Olivia Swalley join this week’s Fight for Iowa podcast. Woodward discusses her comeback from injury and what Senior Night means to a class that helped guide the program through difficult early years. Swalley reflects on a season that’s seen her lead the team in five events and rewrite the record book.

Plus, a look ahead at a bright future: freshman Payton Flowers’ pool record in the 50 free, and a Hawkeye Invitational that produced 19 program top-10 times, three champions, and three school records.
