The 30th annual Centennial Conference women's swimming championship begins Thursday night at Franklin & Marshall's McGinness Pool inside the Kunkel Aquatic Center. The four-day meet begins with a pair of relays - the 200 medley and 800 freestyle - on Thursday night at 7 p.m. and continues through Sunday. The Friday through Sunday schedule will feature prelims at 10 a.m. each morning followed by finals at 6 p.m.
Three-time defending champion Swarthmore is the prohibitive favorite after another perfect 7-0 record in Centennial dual meets this season. The Garnet enter this weekend ranked eighth in the latest College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) poll, while Gettysburg is 20th. Gettysburg recorded a 6-1 record in CC duals while F&M (5-2) and Washington College (4-3) also compiled winning dual marks.
Gettysburg has more CC titles (15) than all of the other teams combined in the history of the championship meet. Ursinus (6), Swarthmore (5) and F&M (3) each have multiple conference crowns since the inaugural Centennial championship in 1994.
Ten individual champions will return to the pool for this year's championship, led by Championship Most Outstanding Performer and Swimmer of the Year Quinn Weygandt. Weygandt is the two-time defending champion in the 200 IM and 400 IM and the defending champion in the 200 butterfly. Earlier this year Weygandt broke her own record in the 400 IM with a time of 4:21.64. She also holds the CC championship marks in both the 200 IM and 400 IM, as she reset her own records in both events last winter.
Swarthmore's Sophie Rotival will vie for a four-peat in the 100 breaststroke and a third gold in the 200 breaststroke. Rotival is the conference and championship-meet record-holder in both events, having set the championship marks in 2024. Other returning meet record-holders include Swarthmore's Genine Collins in the 50 freestyle and Gettysburg's Mia Yancey in the 100 and 200 freestyle. Collins is also the reigning champion in the 100 butterfly.
Gettysburg's Mia Morreale will aim for a repeat title in the 100 backstroke while Swarthmore's Kate Hallmark will also look to repeat in the 1650 freestyle. Other previous champions back in the pool this weekend include Gettysburg's Olivia Pyott (2023 champion in 200 breaststroke), and Swarthmore's Elle Anthony (2023 champion in 50 & 100 freestyle), Erin Szuromi (2023 champion in 100 & 200 backstroke) and Annaliese Chen (2022 champion in 200 butterfly and 400 IM).
