2025 RECAP
In one of the closest meets in NESCAC Women’s Swimming & Diving Championship history, the Williams Ephs edged the Tufts Jumbos to claim their 21st NESCAC title. Just 29.5 points separated first and second place as Williams finished the meet with a team total of 1831 points and Tufts was the runners-up with 1801.5 points. Amherst finished third with 1117 points and host Colby placed fourth with 1112 points. Middlebury rounded out the top five teams with 996 points.
Entering the final session, 7.5 points separated the Ephs and Jumbos. After the 200 backstroke, Tufts closed two within a half point, and a win by Jillian Cudney in the 100 freestyle briefly pushed Tufts into the lead by 31.5 points. Williams responded with wins in the 200 breaststroke and 200 butterfly to regain the lead and secure the title. Overall, Eph swimmers won nine events at the 2025 championship.
Amherst (1), Tufts (2), and Williams (21) are the only three programs to have won a NESCAC Women's Swimming & Diving title in the event's history, which dates back to 2001.
