Short History of the JV Championship: This event was created and originally hosted by former Houghton swim coach John Vincent as a final meet for any athletes not having a chance to participate in the U.P. Championship. In 2006 Houghton dropped the meet due to declining numbers and Marquette agreed to take it on.  This year the event is open to any athlete who coaches think would thrive in this setting. All awards are being donated by MSHS Swimming and Diving.
