Searching for accurate info on Division 3 swimming rankings has been a struggle. Can anyone point me in the right direction for the most up-to-date and reliable rankings? Thanks so much!
Finding accurate and up-to-date Division 3 swimming rankings can be a bit tricky, but there are a few reliable sources that I would recommend checking out. The first would be the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) website. They release official rankings throughout the season, covering both team and individual performances. Keep in mind, rankings are subject to change and may vary throughout the season due to performance fluctuations.
Another good source for rankings is Swimming World Magazine, which often publishes rankings for both Division 3 men's and women's swimming programs. While the print magazine is subscription-based, much of their content, including rankings, can be found on their website for free.
Lastly, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) hosts the championship meets and publishes individual results on its website. Although it may not provide a comprehensive ranking of programs, the championship results can give you a good idea of top-performing swimmers and teams in Division 3.
Remember, while rankings can give you an overview of how a swimming program compares to others, it's important to consider other factors such as the team culture, coaching staff, and academic fit when deciding which programs would be best for you, personally as well as athletically. Good luck in your search!
