A tradition of the men’s swimming team that has proven to be a favorite of Tennessee fans takes place prior to away dual meets and championship meets. Prior to the opening event, a Tennessee swimmer pours a bottle of water from the home pool into the tournament pool. Coach Ray Bussard began this tradition. When the Alan Jones Aquatic Center became the home of Tennessee Swimming teams, a bottle of water from the pool at the Student Aquatic Center was poured into the pool at the dedication of the facility to continue the tradition.
