The CSCAA-led proposal to remake the NCAA Division I Swimming & Diving Championship format is on the agenda for the NCAA Sports Oversight Committee on Wednesday.
If the committee chooses to vote, that vote would be binding, and could reframe the qualifications for, and format of, future NCAA Swimming & Diving Championship meets, but Samantha Barany, head of the Collegiate Swimming & Diving Coaches’ Association (CSCAA) says that a vote is not guaranteed.
“The NCAA recently approved a new governance structure,” she said. “There is a possibility that this vote, along with others, could be tabled until the new committees are populated.”
The NCAA’s new governance structure creates sport-specific committee that have authority governing conduct of athletics personnel, playing and practice seasons, recruiting rules, and Division I playing rules and championship administration.
While these committees already exist in football and men’s and women’s basketball, the new structure is bringing them to all NCAA sports. The goal is to “ensure coaches have a voice in decisions about their sports,” Barany says, including designated seats for a coaches’ association representative on each sport’s oversight committee.
On Wednesday, Barany will present her organization’s new plan to the committee. Among the major components of the proposal includes changing the schedule to increase the excitement of the final day of competition, splitting diving to lessen the number of rounds of diving that split up finals sessions of swimming, dropping B Finals and scoring 9th-16th place out of prelims, and creating automatic qualification opportunities for conference champions – specifically from mid-major conferences.
