The MPSF had previously turned in a high of five national championships during the 2007-08, 2008-09, 2015-16, and 2023-24 years.<\/p>\n<p>The conference has won at least four titles in 18 of the last 22 years, and at least two in all but one of its 34 years. With the six national championships this year, the MPSF has reached 127 since its inaugural year of 1992-93.<\/p>\n<p>The MPSF\u2019s most recent and record-setting national title took place this past weekend, when the University of Washington Men\u2019s Rowing program captured its third-straight, and 22nd overall Intercollegiate Rowing Association (IRA) championship. Earlier in May, UCLA Beach Volleyball took home its third NCAA title which tied the MPSF\u2019s single-year record with a fifth championship. The conference posted two national titles in April, with USC\u2019s eighth women\u2019s water polo championship and Stanford Men\u2019s Gymnastics winning its 11th.<\/p>\n<p>Stanford\u2019s Artistic Swimming squad also recorded its 11th title following the 14th championship for UCLA Men\u2019s Water Polo to kick-off the 2025-26 year.<\/p>\n<p>The MPSF will enter the 2026-27 academic year with 117 NCAA Championships, leading the nation amongst Division-I Non-Power Four Conferences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2025-26 MPSF National Championships<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SPORT NATIONAL CHAMPION DATES SITE<\/p>\n<p>Men\u2019s Rowing: Washington, May 29-31, 2026 Lake Natoma, Calif.<\/p>\n<p>Beach Volleyball: UCLA, May 1-3, 2026 Gulf Shores, AL<\/p>\n<p>Women\u2019s Water Polo: USC, April 24-26, 2026 UC San Diego<\/p>\n<p>Men\u2019s Gymnastics: Stanford,, April 17-18, 2026 University of Illinois<\/p>\n<p>Artistic Swimming: Stanford March 27-28, 2026 Stanford University<\/p>\n<p>Men\u2019s Water Polo: UCLA, December 5-7, 2025 Stanford University<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/category\/college\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More College News<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mpsports.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More MPSF news<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW112485579 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW112485579 BCX8\">\u2014 The above press release was posted by Swimming World in conjunction with MPSF Athletics<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW112485579 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW112485579 BCX8\">.
