Britton Spann Transferring To Tampa After Two Years At Auburn

Britton Spann will transfer to Division II Tampa for the upcoming 2025-2026 season after spending two seasons at Auburn, he announced via Instagram.

Spann arrived in fall 2023 and finished his freshman season at the first and last chance meets for Auburn. He swam a personal best 1:56.91 200 breast at the First Chance meet before swimming a 55.24 in the 100 breast at the Last Chance meet. He competed at US Olympic Trials last summer finishing 72nd in the 200 breast (2:18.01).

He dropped time this fall posting a 53.96 in the 100 breast at midseason. He did not swim at SECs again but swam another lifetime best with a 53.94 100 breast at the First Chance meet. He also swam a lifetime best 1:56.66 in the 200 breast.

Spann’s Best SCY times are:

  • 100 breast: 53.94
  • 200 breast: 1:56.66

The Tampa men captured the 2024 NCAA title and finished 2nd behind Drury at 2025 NCAAs. Spann is a boost to the breaststroke group as he would have been in the ‘A’ final in the 200 breast as his lifetime best would have been 5th. Tampa was led by junior Jared Mindek in the event as he was 3rd in a 1:55.60.

Spann also would have been in the top of the ‘B’ final at 2025 NCAAs in the 100 breast. Tampa had zero ‘A’ finalists in the event at NCAAs while they had two ‘B’ finalists.

Spann is among at least three transfers from Auburn to Tampa on the men’s side as he joins Josh Noll and Aidan Clements. Both Noll and Clements also have NCAA Division II scoring times already.

Tampa should swim Auburn in a dual meet next year. It might be close if Auburn keeps losing swimmers

These guys are all products of team limits. They are good swimmers that got screwed by Conference Rules.
