Well, we got the 10 women and we got more than 30 men. I think that might be one of the biggest freshman male classes ever!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is great for the swimmers from Oklahoma so that their friends and family will be able to watch them compete over their next four years. I&#8217;m also really excited about the swimmers from other states like Washington, West Virginia, Arkansas, Nebraska, Delaware, Tennessee, Louisiana and Kansas, who are coming to make OC their second home and enjoy the great quality of college life we have to offer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And, of course, as a native Texan I&#8217;m proud that about half our roster is from the great swimming state of Texas, and several from near where I grew up in San Antonio. OC is by far the most Texas friendly school in Oklahoma!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Eagles will begin competition with the 2017-18 season. Included on the first OC roster will be:<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<strong> Nathan Anderson<\/strong> of Broken Arrow (Mingo Valley Christian School), who will swim the breaststroke and freestyle strokes;<br \/>\n&#8212; <strong>Andrew Assaleh<\/strong> of Oklahoma City (Putnam City North High School), who will swim the breaststroke and butterfly;<br \/>\n&#8212; <strong>Justin Bishop<\/strong> of Martinsburg, W.Va.

Davis said he expects more swimmers to sign in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This inaugural freshman class is very special in their desire, work ethic and potential,&#8221; Davis said. &#8220;We look forward to forming some fun rivalries with other Division II schools in this five-state region. We have a great mix of athletes who are excited to keep their swim career going and we have some who will be qualifying for the NCAA Championships and, most likely, Olympic Trials by their senior
