Updated List of Virginia’s 35 NCAA Team National Championships

Virginia women’s swim & dive won its fifth-consecutive national title last weekend, claiming the 2025 NCAA Division I Women’s Swimming & Diving National Championship in Federal Way, Washington. The Cavaliers won 10 of the 21 event titles, including four of the five relays, and finished with 544 total points in the final team standings, 127 points ahead of second-place Stanford.

UVA broke six NCAA records and five swimmers won individual NCAA titles, headlined by Gretchen Walsh, who won three individual titles and swam as part of four title-winning relay teams. She was named the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Division I Women’s Swimmer of the Year for the second season in a row and finished her collegiate career with nine individual event titles and a perfect 16/16 on relay titles. Her older sister, Alex Walsh, won one individual title and three relay titles and finished her career with nine individual titles as well as 14 relay titles. Claire Curzan won two NCAA titles and four relay titles, Anna Moesch won three relay titles, and Maxine Parker won two relay titles.

UVA head coach Todd DeSorbo was named the CSCAA Swim Coach of the Year for the fifth consecutive season. He became the fastest first-time head coach to win five swimming & diving championships, accomplishing the feat in his first seven tries. DeSorbo is tied for third-most NCAA championships among active head coaches.

Virginia joined Texas (1984-1988) and Stanford (1992-1996) as the only programs to win five straight national titles in women’s swimming & diving. This is the first time that any UVA sports team has won five NCAA national titles in a row. UVA men’s soccer won four NCAA championships in a row from 1991 to 1994.

With this title, University of Virginia sports teams have now won 35 NCAA team national championships. Here’s the updated list:
