The 2025 College Club Swimming National Championships concluded on Sunday at the Skyline Aquatic Center in Mesa, Arizona.
This meet brought together various communities within the sport, including former NCAA swimmers, individuals who fell in love with swimming after high school but chose not to pursue the NCAA route, and adults discovering the sport for the first time.
After seeing nine CCS national records fall through the first two days of the competition, another four fell on Sunday, all to Georgia Tech swimmers.
In the first event of the night, the women’s 200 freestyle relay, the Georgia Tech quartet of Rachel Fulton (23.68), Iris Ochoa (24.54), Audrey Munger (24.49), and Delaney Carlton (22.64) touched the wall in 1:35.35, smashing Michigan State’s previous record of 1:36.52 set in 2019. Cal Poly finished in 2nd place with a time of 1:36.62, just missing MSU’s old record by a fraction.
Carlton wasn’t done there though, as she went on to post two more records on the night. She first moved up in distance, capturing her third individual CCS record of the competition in the women’s 100 free. She touched the wall in 50.98, breaking Julianna Prim’s 51.81 record from the 2018 championships.
Carlton’s training partner, Fulton, finished 2nd to Carlton in the 100 free with a time of 51.99, while Ochoa claimed 3rd with a time of 52.72, completing a Yellowjacket 1-2-3 sweep. Earlier in the session, Fulton had won the 50 back in 26.19, a season best, though it was slightly off her career-best time of 25.49. She also claimed the 100 back title on Saturday with a time of 56.14, so her victory in the 50 on Sunday completed a sweep of the sprint backstroke events.
Carlton and Fulton then teamed up with James White and Patrick Lister for the final event of the meet, the mixed 200 free relay. They dominated the field, winning in 1:27.23 to blow Michigan State’s previous record of 1:29.59 out of the water. White opened with a time of 20.71 before handing off to Lister, who clocked 20.42. Carlton and Fulton finished strong with splits of 23.35 and 22.85 on the back end.
Auburn’s Anna Gavin denied Carlton her fourth individual win of the meet in the 100 IM, touching her out at the wall, 58.78 to 59.09. They were the only swimmers to finish under a minute. This was Gavin’s first win of the meet, with her highest other finish of the weekend coming in the 50 back, where she placed fourth with a time of 25.19.
As a reminder, Carlton’s other two individual records came on Saturday in the shorter 50-yard events. In the 50 fly, her winning time of 24.47 was the only sub-25 second swim of the day and significantly surpassed Lindsey Engel’s 2019 record of 24.91. Engel, who spent most of her undergraduate career with the Stanford varsity program, had scored at the Division I NCAAs multiple times in the 100 and 200 fly events.
The last individual CCS record of the season came in the women’s 100 fly, where Georgia Tech’s Gabrielle Freund swam a time of 55.52, breaking Ellie Ridegway’s previous record of 55.98 from 2019. Since Ridegway was also a Yellowjacket, the record remains in GT territory.
Other Day 3 Winners:
- In the men’s 200 free relay, Purdue’s foursome of Bebe Wang (20.71), Andrew Witty (20.28), Tyson Tucci (20.50), and Kellen Reese (20.02) sprinted to the wall with a time of 1:21.51, just behind their record of 1:21.18 from 2023. Reese went on to win the individual 100 fly in 47.50, once again just off his quickest-ever 47.13 from two years ago. He also touched 2nd in the 100 IM to end the session, where AJ Fong grabbed the win in 51.06 to Reese’s 51.08.
- Matthew Davidson denied Florida State’s James Riordan a sweep of the backstroke events. The Liberty representative finished in 23.14 to Riordan’s 23.16 to claim his first win of the meet. Riordan won the 100 back on Saturday (50.62) and the 200 back on Friday (1:50.48).
- Another sweep was denied in the women’s 50 breast, with Cal Poly’s Dariko Djatej winning in 29.99 ahead of Megan Socha (30.21) and Isabella Parish (30.31). Grand Canyon’s Parish had won the 100 (1:04.46) and 200 (2:18.50) earlier in the week, setting substantial personal best times. Despite finishing 3rd in the 50, it was yet another lifetime best for Parish.
- Purdue’s Andrew Witty bagged his second win of the meet in the men’s 50 breast. His final time of 25.05 missed the CCS record by less than a tenth. He won the 100 on Saturday in 55.04.
- James White of Georgia Tech claimed the men’s 100 free, ensuring he would leave with an individual gold medal. He touched the wall in 44.83, winning by a narrow margin of 0.29.
- Stanford’s Ella Blake won the women’s 500 free in 5:02.41, with Georgia Tech’s Ryan Altera nabbing the men’s race (4:32.77) shortly thereafter.
Both the Virginia women and the Purdue men repeated as team champions. Purdue secured the men’s title for the fourth consecutive year, marking a major milestone for the program. Georgia Tech claimed the combined title, finishing nearly 200 points ahead of Purdue.
