2026 NCAA scorer Sydney Gring has entered the transfer portal. Gring just finished her junior season at Pitt.
Gring told SwimSwam, “Ultimately, I would love to stay at Pitt because I love the university, but I don’t know what the future holds.”
The rising senior enters the portal just days after it was announced that head coach Chase Kreitler was resigning from his position, effective immediately. Athletes met with AD Allen Greene on Monday but athletes have said they “left with no real answers.”
Gring entered the portal after this meeting and told SwimSwam, “I went into the meeting feeling hopeful, and left with not enough clarify in the situation, which ultimately made me want to enter the portal.”
She was the 2nd highest individual scorer for the Pitt women at the 2026 NCAA Championships. The Pitt women finished tied for 16th at NCAAs, their highest finish in program history. Gring scored in all three of her individual events, finishing 10th in the 200 IM in a lifetime best 1:54.96, 11th in the 100 back in a lifetime best 51.08, and 16th in the 100 fly in a season best 51.33.
In addition to her individual impact at NCAAs, Gring also swam on four of the team’s relays. She led off their 200 free relay in a lifetime best 22.18, helping that relay finish 16th. She swam another personal best 47.91 leading off their 400 free relay that finished 16th. She split a 1:44.20 200 free on their 800 free relay that was 12th.
Gring is the top NCAA scorer that could still return for Pitt this upcoming season if she decides not to transfer. The top scorer on the women’s side Claire Jansen graduated this month while Julian Koch on the men’s side will transfer to Tennessee.
