9BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana men’s swimming and diving will send nine swimmers and all five relays to the 2023 NCAA Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships as the NCAA announced invitations to the national meet on Wednesday (March 8).
The four-day meet will take place between March 22-25 inside the Jean K. Freeman Aquatic Center on the campus of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Including the five relays, Indiana will have competitors in 14 events. Between the two breaststroke events, IU has nine participants with five of those in the 100-yard event. IU also has three swimmers in both the 50-and-100-yard freestyle events.
The reigning NCAA Champion in the 200-yard butterfly, senior Brendan Burns will again race the 200 fly, 200-yard backstroke and 100-yard butterfly. At last year’s national meet, Burns finished first, second and ninth in those events.
