The first day of the 2026 Men’s NCAA Division I Swimming and Diving Championships wrapped up earlier this evening, and the Pick’Em contest closed earlier today.
You can track all your picks in the spreadsheet below. We have removed all personal identifying information, but you can find your screen name. We will be posting daily with updated standings and daily prizes.
Here are a few tips to help you throughout the week

- Use the search function (ctrl+F on a computer) to find your screen name.
- Check back to SwimSwam throughout the week to follow the action and storylines throughout the week.
Pick’Em Entries
As a reminder, this is the scoring system:
Correctly picking a swimmer to place earns:
- 1st – 7 points
- 2nd – 5 points
- 3rd – 4 points
- 4th – 3 points
Correctly picking a swimmer to place in the top 4, but putting them in the wrong spot, will earn you 1 point.
Team picks will be streamlined with 10 points awarded for picking the winning team and 5 additional points for each correctly-guessed team after that:
- 1st – 10
- 2nd-10th – 5
These are the Prizes
Daily Prizes: A subscription to SwimSwam Magazine
Grand Prize: $200 credit to the SwimSwam Swag Store
The tiebreaker for prizes, if necessary, will be the most correctly picked winners in the relevant time period, then 2nd-place finishers, then 3rd-place finishers, etc. in the relevant time period.

Weird swimswam got a sponsor for the women’s prizes, but not the men.
lol, slipped in with a submission at 10:30am because they forgot to close the form at 9
also, they copied the text from last year but did not let us vote on top 10 teams!
