INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – 82 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference student-athletes have been selected as qualifiers for the 2026 NCAA Division II Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving Championships.

The championships will be held March 10-14 in Evansville, Indiana, as part of the Division II National Championships Festival. The festival is designed to enhance the student-athlete experience, create more awareness and exposure for Division II sports, and increase attendance by having multiple championships in one location.

Colorado Mesa University, the RMAC’s men’s and women’s swimming and diving champions, will travel to Indianapolis with a nation-best 43 qualifiers. The Mavericks secured invitations for 28 swimmers, split evenly with 14 men and 14 women, and will send a program-record 13 divers (seven men, six women), the most of any Division II program. CMU will also bring two additional relay-only swimmers. The Mavericks have qualified for all 10 relay events and are slated to compete in all 38 swimming events across the five-day national championship meet.

Simon Fraser University will send 17 student-athletes to compete, while Colorado School of Mines will be represented by 16. Oklahoma Christian University is set to bring four competitors, and Western Colorado will travel with two student-athletes.

A complete listing of Invited Swimmers by Team reports is available on the NCAA.com website, with the link to the story attached above. The NCAA release shows each student-athlete selected by a team and lists the events in which they were selected.
