MILWAUKEE - Chase Gravengood won two events and Jeff Jasinowski swept the diving events for the second-straight day to pace the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men's swimming and diving team to a pair of wins Sunday afternoon at the Klotsche Center.

The Panthers beat South Dakota State, 132-92, and downed Valparaiso, 141-78.

"The team really did a lot of good things today," UWM head coach Dave Clark said. "We were very good most of the day and some individuals really stepped up with some good performances for us."
