Hounds Vie For GLVC Swimming & Diving Championships This Week

ELKHART, Ind. – The top-five-ranked UIndy swimming & diving teams head to Northern Indiana this week with eyes on both team and individual GLVC titles. The conference's (and some of the nation's) fastest swimmers and most-talented divers will compete at the 2025 GLVC Men's and Women's Swimming & Diving Championships on Feb. 11-15. A combined total of 21 men's and women's teams will square off at the Elkhart Health and Aquatics in Elkhart, Ind.
 
Action starts with the 800 free relay finals Tuesday night at 6 p.m. ET. The standard championship meet format follows, with morning preliminaries (10 ET) and evening finals (5:30 ET) Wednesday through Saturday. In between, the diving competitions will take place at 12:30 p.m. ET every day and will include both prelims and finals with a short break in between.
 
"This is the fastest conference meet in DII every year," shared UIndy Head Coach Brent Noble. "Three schools on the men's side have been in the top four at NCAAs for the past four years, us included—so Drury, McKendree and us have been getting team trophies at NCAAs. Then on the women's side, Drury and UIndy have been in the top four the past four years.
 
"There is really high-quality swimming at GLVCs; very often the national champion ends up coming from our meet. So winning our conference is a big deal. It's very difficult, but it prepares us well for Nationals."
 
The GLVC Championships will be streamed live on the GLVC Sports Network at GLVCSN.com, with a pay-per-view pricing model in place. The GLVCSN Android and iOS apps can also be downloaded on your mobile device, while the OTT platforms on Roku, Amazon fireTV, Android TV, and Apple TV are compatible with the GLVCSN app.
 
Last February, the UIndy men hoisted the GLVC trophy for the fifth time in seven years, edging second-place McKendree by 13 points. Meanwhile, the Greyhound women took the runner-up spot to Drury. All told, UIndy combined for 15 gold medals – 10 men's and 5 women's – on the way to three major awards, including Women's Diver of the Year (Alexis Lumaj) and Men's Swimmer of the Year (Cedric Buessing).
 
Buessing is going for an unprecedented fourth-straight GLVC Swimmer of the Year nod this week. He owns the team's fastest times in four events, including a GLVC-best 8:59.06 in the 1000 free. Below in the list of Greyhounds who will carry a top seed into the meet.
