— Eastern Michigan University's men's and women's swimming and diving teams will host their first meet of the 2014 calendar year when Mid-American Conference foe the University at Buffalo and Big Ten contender Michigan State University come to town to square off against the Eagles, Saturday, Jan. 18.

Both squads have had success against the Bulls, as the men hold a flawless 13-0 record against their conference opponent, while the women have only dropped two dual meets in the 15 meetings between the two teams.  The last time each of the teams went head-to-head resulted in a win for both programs.  The women's team took the Bulls by the horns with a 169-131 victory, while the men won by a slim 151.5-148.5 margin on Jan. 26, 2013 in Buffalo, N.Y..

Against the Spartans of MSU, the men look to pick up their first win since the 2002-03 season, when they took down the in-state opponent, 133.5-107.5, in East Lansing, Mich., Nov. 15, 2002.  The women aim to pick off where they last left off, taking the win over the Spartans, 173.5-121.5, in Columbus, Ohio on Jan. 19, 2008.  Michigan State holds a strong all-time advantage over both programs, as the women are 5-19 and the men are 12-21 against the Spartans.

The meet is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. in Jones Natatorium.  Live stats are available through EMUEagles.com
