The majority of the top NCAA performers every season come out of the Power Five conferences—ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, SEC and Pac-12. But, there’s always swimmers from mid-major programs that make an impact on the national level.
In the pool last season, Laticia-Leigh Transom, Nicole Maier, Anna Kalandadze, Abby Daniel, Christie Chue, Ruard van Renen, Raunak Khosla, Brian Benzing, and Wen Zhang all scored at the 2023 NCAA Championships. In addition, each put up times ranked in the top-10 all-time for Division I mid-major programs.
Those performances inspired us to compile the top-10 swimmers from mid-major programs in each event, all-time. Now, ahead of the 2024 NCAAs, we’ve updated those ranks.
Note: Due to a lack of reliable data, the rankings are potentially missing times from the early 2000s and earlier, so if there are certain swims you notice are missing, please let us know in the comments below.
Notes on the Updated Ranks:
- There are only five events that didn’t see at least one addition to the top 10: men’s 100 backstroke, women’s 1650 freestyle, women’s 200 backstroke, and women’s 100 breaststroke. In the women’s 200 breast Chue tied her personal best from last season. That means that 22 of 26 events (or 84.6%) had a swimmer post a new mark in the top-10.
- Nevada freshman Scarlett Ferris posted the fastest mid-major time in the women’s 100 backstroke. Ferris, who hails from Scotland, swam 51.49 at the Mountain West Conference Championships to overtake the 51.59 mark Maddy Gatrall posted in 2023. Ferris is the only swimmer to post a mid-major top time so far this season.
- Ruard van Renen, the 2023 men’s NCAA top mid-major scorer, transferred to Georgia this season. But SMU added Jack Hoagland and Danny Kovac from Power 5 programs to their roster, each of whom has made the top-10 in multiple events.
- Ferris was the only swimmer to take over the top of the list, but two other swimmers logged top two times. Kovac swam 45.03 in the 100 fly and Brown’s Jack Kelly posted 1:51.62 top take over 2nd in the 200 breast behind fellow Ivy League swimmer Matt Fallon.
- The men’s 200 freestyle saw the most additions to the list this season. The list got halfway rewritten with five new times making the list. Harvard’s Ben Littlejohn leads the way for the newcomers in 5th (1:33.24). Toni Dragoja (6th, 1:33.25), Mitchell Schott (7th, 1:33.37), Jack Hoagland (9th, 1:33.54), and Vili Sivec (10th, 1:33.70) are the other new swimmers on the event list.
- The following events had three updates each: women’s 50 freestyle, women’s 100 backstroke, women’s 100 butterfly, women’s 200 butterfly, men’s 100 breaststroke, men’s 100 butterfly, and men’s 200 IM. Combined with the men’s 200 freestyle, that makes 8 of 26 events that had multiple additions to the list.
- SMU, Princeton, Harvard, and Southern Illinois each had multiple swimmers crack the top-10.
- SMU: Jack Hoagland, Danny Kovac, Cotton Fields
- Princeton: Sabrina Johnston, Heidi Smithwick, Eleanor Sun, Mitchell Schott
- Harvard: Ben Littlejohn, Anthony Rincon, David Schmitt, Will Grant
- Southern Illinois: Celia Pulido, Alex Santiago
Note: Times swum during the 2023-24 season are in bold. Teams are slotted as mid-majors based on their status when a time was swum. For example, SMU used to be in a ‘major’ conference, more recently has been in ‘mid-major’ conferences, and next season will join the ACC – a ‘major’ conference.

William and Mary, Drexel, Towson and Delaware on this list is pretty impressive for the CAA as a conference. Obviously the Ivy League is the best mid-major conference but they’re in a league of their own, what’s the next best mid-major conference? Patriot league feels like it’s basically just Army and Navy, which are both very good, but doesn’t count for depth, MAC kinda meh, A10 is basically just GW, Horizon League is basically Oakland with a little IUPUI, WAC is pretty good?
Is EMU the only team on this list that’s been cut?
RIP EMU Men’s Swimming
Cotton Fields sounds like a name key and peele came up with for the east-west bowl
well done, this is a great list. Forgot that Amy Van Dyken went to Colorado State. And hats off to Tony Corbisero- I am too young to remember that swim, but wow, that is impressive from 1982….
Limin Liu-200 Fly 1:52.93 (2000)
Kuba Kwasny does not go to George Mason
GW had two entries as well, 200 Free and 100 fly
Kwasny (mens 100 Fly) swims for Drexel
