They will also send four relays: the 400 freestyle relay, 200 freestyle relay, 200 medley relay and 400 medley relay, which will be comprised of the aforementioned swimmers.
On the board, Olivia Dollar, Saylor Hawkins and Brigid Krbec will have their scores from the 3-meter springboard at this week's NCAA Zone D Championships counted, and Hawkins and Krbec's score from the Zone D Championships in the 1-meter springboard will also be counted.
"The team is getting excited for another great week of racing at the CSCAA National Invite," head coach Brittany Roth said. "This group has done a great job these past couple of weeks in their preparation and refocus as we set our sights on competing against really strong field. We've had a history of strong performances at this meet, and I'm excited to watch our student-athletes return and represent UNT on the national stage."
