LAS VEGAS - The UNLV swimming team prepares for the start of regular season with the UNLV Fall Invitational. The meet begins Friday at 5 p.m. at the Buchanan Natatorium on the UNLV campus and continues Saturday at 9 a.m. Admission is free for both days.

The Rebels will compete with four club teams: Sandpipers, Desert Storms, Raisin Country Aquatics (CA) and Boulder City Aquatics.

"This is a great opportunity for us to prepare for the start of the regular season," said UNLV head swimming and diving coach Jim Reitz. "It is also the first chance for a lot of our younger swimmers to swim against someone other than a teammate."
