Three S&T swimmers have been selected to compete in seven events at the 2026 NCAA Division II Swimming and Diving Championships held March 10-14 in Evansville, Indiana.
Senior Connor Bichsel earned four entries, qualifying in the 200 breaststroke, 200 butterfly, 200 individual medley and 400 individual medley – the most events of any Miner this year. Fellow senior Jordan Christensen qualified in the 100 and 200 breaststroke. Junior Adam Wiedemeier will join them in Evansville after qualifying in the 200 freestyle.
All three return to nationals after competing in last year’s championships, with Bichsel earning his fourth consecutive qualification.
