We did the math – well, SwimSwam’s numbers guy Andrew Mering did – and the NCAA Division II cutlines should fall in line 17 for the men and 21 for the women.
That’s a sharp reduction from last year, when the cuts fell in line 22 for the men and line 27 for the women. Amid the coronavirus pandemic, the NCAA reduced the size of its championship fields at the Division II level. The women’s swimming & diving field was lowered from 205 to 146, and the men’s swimming & diving field from 175 to 146.
16 spots in each gender go to divers, leaving 130 women’s and men’s swimmers on the invite list for 2021. Teams will also not be able to bring relay-only swimmers.
The NCAA released its pre-selection psych sheets earlier today, and will release official cutlines in the coming days.
