WILKES-BARRE -- The second-annual Diamond City Swimming Invitational, hosted by King's College and the Catholic Youth Center, in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., will be held Saturday and Sunday in the Sallie Mae Aquatics Center in the CYC.

Those unable to attend can follow the event both days at:

There are also apps available for mobile devices on the LiveStats link.

The name of the meet is derived from the City of Wilkes-Barre's nickname – The Diamond City. The nickname was given to Wilkes-Barre years ago due its rich coal mining history. Over many years of pressure, coal will transform to diamond.

Competing Teams:  Arcadia University, East Stroudsburg University (women only), Hood College, King's College, Marywood University, Misericordia University, Mt. St. Mary's (NY) College, and the University of Scranton.

Admission is $3.00 for adults and $1 for students with ID.
