2026 Women’s NCAA Division I Championships: Pick’em Contest Final Scoring Update

2026 NCAA Division I Women’s Swimming and Diving Championships

The 2026 Women’s NCAA Division I Swimming and Diving Championships are in the books. We saw a lot of great racing in Atlanta throughout the week, and now it’s time to finish out the Pick’em Contest. Thank you to everyone who participated in the contest this year! They always add an extra beat of excitement to the meets.

If anyone is interested, the event in which the contestants performed the best in on day 4 was the 100 free, which was followed closely by the 200 back. On the other hand, the 200 IM was the worst event for the contest by far. To give an idea, the average score for the 200 IM was 5.85, which is quite low considering there are 19 points available per event. Many people picked Anastasia Gorbenko to win the event, and she wound up in 4th. Not many people picked Teagan O’Dell to finish 2nd in the event, which also threw the scores a bit.

Without further ado, here is the final table of scores. This table is sorted from lowest-to-highest based on day 4 scores:

The day 4 daily winner was screen name “Chuckles” with a score of 75. “Chuckles” ended on a high note, with day 4 being their highest scoring day by 19 points. Congratulations!

CORRECTION: We had initially named the incorrect winner for the grand prize. We forgot to include the scoring from the team scores in the final tally. So, with that correction being made, “aznswimmaboi12” is the grand prize winner for this contest.

Just want to ask is that the table block content copy? As in the past I will copy it to excel to see how I rank, but seems this time can’t, and the table didn’t provide final ranking too (it’s sorted base on day 4 scores). So no way to know how I rank in the contest.

I was coming here to make a similar comment. Would like to see how I ranked overall without having to go through the list manually (which I definitely did).

Will you be adding the team points to the totals? I do not see it included.

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

Thanks!
