Eight Swimmers, All Five Relays Invited to Women’s NCAA Championships

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana women’s swimming and diving will send eight swimmers and all five relays to the 2023 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships as the NCAA announced invitations to the national meet on Wednesday (March 1).

The four-day meet will take place between March 15-18 at the Allan Jones Intercollegiate Aquatic Center on the campus of the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Including the five relays, Indiana will have competitors in 16 swimming events. IU’s most concentrated events will be the 200-yard breaststroke and 400-yard IM, with three participants in each. The Hoosiers have multiple swimmers in eight races.

IU could add a ninth swimmers to its meet roster, as senior Maggie Wallace is listed as the alternate in the 1,650-yard freestyle. Should an athlete scratch from that event, Wallace would earn the invite.

Indiana will look to add more NCAA qualifiers via the NCAA Zone Diving Championships. IU will host the Zone C qualifiers at Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatic Center March 9-11.
