RALEIGH – The NC State men's and women's swimming and diving program announced its 2018-19 schedule, which features a pair of home dual meets to be held in Raleigh in January.
The Wolfpack will kick off the year with its Fourth Annual Wolfpack Games, which is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 28 at 6 p.m. at the Willis R. Casey Aquatic Center. In addition to allowing fans the chance to meet the 2018-19 squad, NC State will honor its national champions from the 2017-18 season with ring ceremonies throughout the event.
NC State's regular season begins on Oct. 12 as it travels to Columbia, S.C. to take on the Gamecocks. The Pack will then make the short trip to Durham, N.C. the following weekend for a dual meet at Duke on Oct. 20.
The inaugural ACC/Big Ten Challenge is slated for Nov. 10-11 as select members of the Wolfpack will join swimmers and divers from each ACC program to participate in the interconference meet, which will take place on the campus of Purdue University. In addition to having student-athletes who will be selected for the squad, NC State head coach Braden Holloway will serve as the coach for the ACC men's team.
The following week, the Wolfpack is set to compete at the IU Invitational from Nov. 15-17 in Bloomington, Ind.
The 2018 USA Winter National Championships will be held Nov.28-Dec. 1 at the Greensboro Aquatic Center, as members of the Wolfpack will join the nation's top swimmers to compete in the long-course meters (LCM) competition that will translate to qualifying times for the Olympic trials.

The event serves as a way for divers to qualify for the FINA Diving Grand Prix and the 2019 World University Games. In head diving coach Yahya Radman's first season with the Wolfpack, now-alumna Rachel Mumma became the first NC State diver to be selected to the USA Diving National Team after her performance at the national meet, earning a spot on the Team USA roster for the 2015 World University Games.
The Pack divers will then start the 2019 calendar year by heading to Athens, Ga. for the Georgia Diving Invite from Jan. 4-6.

The Pack will hit the road again for a two-day tri-meet in Austin, Texas against Arizona and Texas on Feb. 1-2 and will then compete in the Carolina College Invitational in Chapel Hill, N.C. from Feb. 8-10.
The Wolfpack's postseason will begin with the 2019 ACC Swimming & Diving Championship events, which will once again be held in Greensboro, N.C. at the Greensboro Aquatic Center.
