ATLANTA – The Northwestern men's swimming and diving team is sending ten Wildcats to Atlanta, Ga., to compete in the NCAA DI Championships Wednesday through Saturday (March 25-28), at McAuley Aquatic Center. The Championships will be streamed on ESPN+.
Seven Wildcat swimmers punched their tickets to the NCAA Championships: Stuart Seymour (100 Fly, 100 Back), Joshua Staples (200 IM, 400 IM), Oli Kos (200 Back, 200 Free), and David Gerchik (200 Back) in individual events, as well as Aaron Baltaytis, Connor Schuster and Cade Duncan, competing in relays. Their 2025-26 performances earned them spots in the nation's most competitive collegiate swimming event to cap off the season.
In diving, NU will be represented by Ryan Augustine (1M, 3M), Kyle Ly (Platform) and Adam Cohen (Platform) after notching qualifying scores at the NCAA Zone C Diving Championships.
Further information regarding the event, including meet schedule, streaming, and live results, can be found on the NCAA's meet central page.
