Also known as the "Swim Dawgs," the teams compete at Gabrielsen Natatorium in Athens, Georgia, USA. The women have won six NCAA national championships (1999, 2000, 2001, 2005, 2013, 2014). Jack Bauerle is the head coach over both the men's and women's swimming teams. Dan Laak is the head diving coach.

History

The men's team was formed in 1926 by Clarence Jones and practices were held in the Athens YMCA 20-yard pool.[4] The men's team later moved to Stegeman Hall, an indoor athletics and training facility built during World War I and demolished in 1996.[5][6] The women's team began competing in 1974. Both teams moved to their current facility, Gabrielsen Natatorium, in 1996.

The women's 1st-place finish in the 2014 Women's NCAA national championships was their 20th consecutive top-7 effort at that meet.[1][7] The men's team has finished in the top 15 at Men's NCAA national championships every year since 1997.[3] A 7th place showing at the 2008 Men's championship was the eighth top-ten finish for the men's team in its history.[8]
