FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The Nova Southeastern swimming and diving teams are set to host the Tampa Spartans, Saturday, Dec. 3, after three weeks removed from competition, in hopes of claiming their third conference victory of the season. The No. 9 men come into this event 3-0 (2-0 SSC) and the No. 14 women 2-2 (2-0 SSC).
