HOUSTON – Tulane Swimming & Diving team will attend the annual Phill Hansel Invitational in honor of former University of Houston Head Coach Phill Hansel, running Thursday through Saturday at the CRWC Natatorium on the University of Houston's Campus.Â

The three-day meet begins each morning at 10 a.m. with preliminary sessions. Following a break, the teams will head back into the pool for finals starting at 6 p.m., Thursday and Friday. Finals will begin at 4 p.m., on Saturday.
Tulane will face five other teams over the weekend including Houston (host), Air Force, New Mexico, North Texas and Rice. The Green Wave has already gone toe-to-toe with Rice and Houston earlier this season.
ABOUT PHILL HANSEL
This weekend's meet is named in honor of former University of Houston Swimming & Diving Head Coach Phill Hansel. Hansel, considered the Father of Cougar Swimming & Diving, led the Cougars from 1975 to 1996, racking up 70 dual-meet victories. He helped UH finish in the Top-20 ten times at the AIAW and NCAA Championships.
Hansel, a 1949 graduate of Purdue, was named the Southwest Conference Coach of the Year three times during his tenure, and mentored 31 swimmers to All-America honors, including Diane Johannigman, the first NCAA swimming national champion in UH history.
Hansel also had an impressive resume at the international level, serving as the manager of the 1992 U.S. Olympics teams and working with the Singapore teams at the 1984 and 1988 Olympics.
In his honor, the University of Houston will host the Phill Hansel Invitational every fall.
