  • Division I Women's Swimming & Diving Championships
    DIVISION I WOMEN’S SWIMMING & DIVING CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2015 Championship 2 History 5 All-Time Results 19 2015 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS California takes its fourth title in the past seven years: Consistency is everything. One national championship is nice, but can be written off as a fluke if if the success is not sustained or predicated. To be in the conversation year in and year out, as Cal women’s swimming and diving head coach Teri McKeever puts it, is the key. For years, McKeever worked to find that success. It came gradually. She was in her seventh year with the Golden Bears before the squad was able to crack the top five in the NCAA Division I national championship meet. It got better, a lot better in fact. Approximately $10 million in donor funds over the year built facilities and scholarship funds suitable for a championship-caliber program. Only once the 2005-06 season has Cal finished as low as fifth in the nationals. And since winning its first national championship in 2009, the Golden Bears have finished no worse than third. “We started to have some success, and I think quality people attract quality people,” McKeever said. “I am very proud of the consistency of the program. To me, that’s the sign of a program ... a philosophy ... a belief ... that a group of women can come in and be their best year after year.” This year’s national crown is Cal’s fourth in the past seven seasons. Consistency? McKeever and the Golden Bears have it all right.

  • Swimming and Diving DIVISION I WOMEN’S
    Swimming and Diving DIVISION I WOMEN’S Highlights Georgia swims to second consecutive championship title, eclipses Stanford—Georgia completed an impressive wire-to-wire victory on Saturday at the NCAA Championships to claim its second consecutive national title. Georgia rolled up 528 points in the three-day meet, eclipsing Stanford’s 402.5 and California’s 386. Texas A&M came in fourth and Southern California was fifth. The national championship is the sixth overall for the Lady Bulldogs, which ranks third all-time. Georgia previously claimed NCAA titles in 1999, 2001, 2002, 2005 and 2013. The Lady Bulldogs also earned their fifth consecutive and 11th overall Southeastern Conference championship last month in Athens, Ga. Brittany MacLean, who won the 500 and 1,650 freestyle races, was chosen as the Swimmer of the Meet. Laura Ryan, with the two springboard crowns, was picked as the Diver of the Meet, while Dan Laak was selected as the Diving Coach of the Meet. “This team set its goals back in September and they never strayed from them,” Senior Associate Head Coach Harvey Humphries said. “They knew that NCAA and SEC titles were possible if they were willing to put in the hard work. Their dedication this season has been amazing. After watching them work hard every day and push themselves to get better, it’s fitting that they get to hold this trophy. This is a special accomplishment for these women and I want them to enjoy every moment of it. Part of their legacy is that they will always be the 2014 national champions.” “This is an incredible feeling,” senior Shannon Vreeland said.
