The LSU swimming and diving teams wrapped up the regular season with the LSU Invitational Friday and Saturday at the LSU Natatorium.The Lady Tigers (7-3-1) picked up victories against Rice, Houston and UNO, while the No. 7 Tigers (7-1) crushed a young UNO men’s program.LSU swimming coach Adam Schmitt said he hoped to see his swimmers perform well in this meet because only 18 swimmers can make the trip to the Southeastern Conference Championships.LSU sophomore Eric Zeller swam a career and team-best time again Friday in the 50 freestyle with a 20.28-second performance.The Lady Tigers broke two pool records in the 400 freestyle relay and the 200 freestyle relay.
“We shattered some pool records this weekend on the women’s side, and that’s certainly a good building block going into the SEC Championships,” Schmitt said.
