2026 NCAA Automatic Qualifier Update: Seven Men And Seven Women Added From ACC and SEC Meets

By Madeline Folsom on SwimSwam

We are officially done with the first day of individual events for week two of the 2026 Division I conference season, and 14 swimmers were added to the NCAA Championships tonight.

    Week Two features three of the power-four conference meets, which means a number of new athletes will be added to the Division I NCAA Championships in March via the new “win-and-you’re-in” model.

    Generally conference winners from power-four schools would qualify for the conference championships regardless of the new policy, but we are including them in our tracking for the numbers.

    There are also a few mid-major conference meets swimming this week, but they all start with individual events tomorrow, so there were no automatic qualifiers from those conferences tonight.

    Every event winner from the ACC and SEC Championships was well under the NCAA qualifying standard and the 2025 Invite Time, and seven swimmers of each gender (four from the SEC and three from the ACC) earned automatic qualifications tonight, bumping the overall totals to 12 women and 11 men.

    As a reminder. We are only listing swimmers one time. There were a few athletes at the Big West Championships who earned multiple conference titles in NCAA qualifying times, but they are only listed under the first event they qualified in.
