Texas Men, Virginia Women Lead CSCAA Division I Pre-Season Poll
The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) released its Division I preseason poll. While the swimming & diving season remains questionable, the committee convened this week to establish dual meet rankings. All teams are eligible for the preseason edition of the 2020-21 polls.
The University of Texas men and University of Virginia women are preseason favorites heading into the season. The Longhorn men and Stanford women held the top spots before the early conclusion of last season.
California men claim the second spot in the preseason poll, the same place they held at the end of last year. Florida is third, just one point ahead of NC State. Michigan takes the fifth position to round out the top five. Despite being slated for elimination, the Iowa men received 28 points, good enough to be nationally ranked.
Stanford women are second heading into the season. Michigan is third to start; they were fifth at the end of last year. Georgia is fourth and California fifth.
