Leavenworth, Kan.— Spire men's and women's swim hosted their annual Spire Relays this afternoon in their home pool at Lansing HS Natatorium.

The Spires posted a multitude of top placements on both the men's and women's side. The Spire men were just narrowly defeated in a true fight to the finish by Morningside University while the women were triumphant against Morningside, Dordt, and Sterling College.

The USM swim season just keeps rolling for the Spires. They will take a much deserved few weeks of recovery before the heat of the season truly ramps up. Spire swim will be on the move to Conway, Arkansas to compete at the familiar Hendrix Invite at the Bob Courtway Pool, hosted by the Division III Hendrix Warriors.
