The Sites and Dates for the 2026 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships<\/strong><\/p>\n

As we inch closer to the start of the collegiate season, Swimming World is providing a look at where the NCAA will conduct its 2025-26 championships.<\/p>\n

At the Division I level, the Georgia Tech Aquatic Center will serve as the host for both the women’s and men’s championship meets, which will be held in back-to-back weeks. The women’s meet is scheduled for March 18-21 in Atlanta, with the men arriving in town for competition from March 25-28. While Virginia<\/a> will chase a sixth consecutive title on the women’s side, Texas is the defending champion for the men.<\/p>\n

The Deaconess Aquatic Center in Evansville, Indiana will be the site of the co-ed NCAA Division II Championships. The meet is scheduled for March 10-14, but will not have a men’s defending champion. After claiming the title last March, Drury University was forced to vacate its championship after one of its athletes returned a single positive test for a caffeine level over the NCAA’s allowable limit. On the women’s side, Nova Southeastern has won the last three titles.<\/p>\n

In Division III, the famed IU Natatorium<\/a> in Indianapolis will be the championship locale from March 18-21. The MIT women grabbed their first championship last spring while Denison is the defending men’s champ.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
