32 Males’s Groups Qualify Relays for 2022 NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships


2022 MEN’S NCAA SWIMMING & DIVING CHAMPIONSHIPS

There are a whole lot of methods to measure the success of collegiate swimming applications on a holistic degree. From the overly-simplistic (factors scored at NCAAs) to the advanced (enchancment curves and attrition charges), swimming is a sport made to investigate a staff’s success.

Considered one of my favorites, although, is wanting on the variety of relay {qualifications} {that a} college has.

To me, when a faculty begins to get 5 relays certified for the NCAA Championships, it enters them right into a particular degree of depth amongst NCAA groups. It means they want at the very least 5 actually good swimmers, and extra usually 7 or 8. It means they’re starting to place collectively some degree of depth and never simply counting on a single star or two to hold them.

To get even a single relay certified for the NCAA Championships is a big turning level for lots of applications.

Beneath is a chart of which groups have made which relays for the 2022 Males’s NCAA Division I Championships.

How Relays Qualify for NCAAs:

  • The best option to qualify relays for NCAAs is to hit the “A Minimize,” formally often known as the “Qualifying Customary” in a relay.
  • As soon as a staff has an “A” normal relay, they will additionally enter all relays during which they’ve a “B” normal, formally often known as a “Provisional Customary.”
  • Groups with 4 particular person swimmers certified can swim relay occasions during which they’ve at the very least a “B” normal.

Some Observations:

  • 32 completely different males’s groups have certified relays for the NCAA Championships. Like we noticed on the girls’s meet, that’s a rise from final 12 months, when solely 27 groups certified relays. The Havard and UNLV males are the one mid-major groups (males or girls) to qualify a relay for D1 NCAAs this season.
  • 22 of these groups will ship all 5 relays. Two, Kentucky and UNLV, will solely ship 1 relay every.
  • 12 colleges hit Qualifying Requirements (“A” cuts) in all 5 relays. That’s a rise of just one from final season.
  • Final 12 months, the Stanford males had 1 “A” minimize relay and a couple of “B” minimize relays. This 12 months, they’ve 5 “A” minimize relays – reflective of the noticed enhancements they’ve had this season beneath third 12 months head coach Dan Schemmel.
  • Even after a tumultuous season that noticed Notre Dame lose their greatest swimmer Jack Hoagland to damage and their head and affiliate head coaches depart this system a month into the season, the Irish have been resilient: they certified 4 relays for NCAAs (all however the 800 free). That may be a large enchancment from final season, once they certified just one relay for NCAAs – and that 800 free relay was solely a Provisional Customary.
  • Like their girls’s staff, Auburn’s males went from 0 relays final season to five this 12 months beneath first 12 months head coach Ryan Wochomurka. Only one, the 400 free relay, didn’t hit the “A” normal.
