Common questions

What schools are in the Empire 8 for swimming?

The Empire 8's Division III swimming & diving programs are listed above. A conference's swim league is a subset of its full athletic membership, so this list includes only the schools that sponsor varsity swimming for the 2025-26 season.

Do all Empire 8 schools have a swim team?

No. A conference's swim league is usually smaller than its full membership, and some schools field a men's or women's team but not both. This page lists only the Empire 8 programs that sponsor varsity swimming & diving in the 2025-26 season.

How competitive is Empire 8 swimming?

It varies by program. To see where your swimmer's times land, open a program's profile for its roster times, or browse the Division III recruiting-times rankings event by event.
