Message from head coach Rick PrattAt New Mexico State we have an environment where academ-ics and swimming and diving are supported at the highest level. We are looking for stu-dent-athletes who have a desire to be great students, a strong passion for their sport, and can help us continue our rise on the national scene. The success

of our student-athletes in the classroom, and the improvements in the pool, and on the boards are clear indications of the great culture currently in place. Each individual’s efforts and the way they support one another are the main reasons why our swim-ming and diving program is achieving our goals on every level.
