Sixteen NCAA Swimmers Win Medals at 2014 Commonwealth Games

GLASGOW, Scotland, July 29. SWIMMERS with ties to American universities claimed 28 medals at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, slightly less than the number of medals those with NCAA ties earned at the 2010 Games.

Of the 16 swimmers connected to American universities, seven of them no longer compete for their alma maters. Eight will return to their campuses in a few weeks with some great stories to tell their collegiate teammates, while one will be a freshman this fall. Four of this year’s swimmers were medalists in 2010.

At the 2010 Commonwealth Games, 13 swimmers with NCAA ties won medals, so American collegiate swimming remains a strong presence at the quadrennial meet. Below is the list of NCAA athletes who won medals in Glasgow:
