In 2025-26 the Kutztown Swimming teams had one of their most successful efforts in school history. The women’s team recorded their highest team PSAC finish in 16 years with 6th place out of 13 teams. Senior Ana Soto broke school records in the 50 and 100 Free and achieved an NCAA B cut in the 100. There were multiple entries onto the KU All-time Top 10 Event List as well as several A Finalist at the PSAC Championships.
In just their second year back, the men’s team once again finished 7th out of 8 teams and had a run at the record board. Nevin Shaw finished with 3 individual school records (400 IM, 100, 200 Breast). Two school relay records were also broken. 800 Free Relay (Matheson Bair, Nigel Pizzo, Andrew Pletz, Nevin Shaw) and the 400 Medley Relay (Zach Schurr, Nevin Shaw, RJ Otten, Matheson Bair). There were also 3 near misses for records in 50 Free, 200 IM and 1650 Free.
Both teams excelled in the classroom with each team achieving CSCAA Academic All-American Team status in both semesters. Women’s team (3.42 Fall, 3.55 Spring) Men’s team (3.20 Fall, 3.24 Spring)
