The Yale swimming and diving program has produced countless champion athletes since 1898. Yale swimmers have broken world records, earned hundreds of All-American honors, and have shaped the sport of swimming into what it is today. The team has won 4 NCAA championships, 30 EISL championships, and several AAU championships. Under legendary coach Robert J. H. Kiphuth, the Yale men swam to a record of 528 wins and 12 losses. Today, the men's program has what may be the winningest record of any sports team ever: 1051 wins, 200 losses over 108 years. The first varsity women's team competed in 1975.

Facilities

The Yale Swimming & Diving teams train and compete in the Payne Whitney Gymnasium on Yale's campus. The third-floor practice pool is a 5-lane, 50-meter course with two moveable bulkheads that allow the pool to be divided into two 25-yard courses. The Robert J. H. Kiphuth Exhibition Pool is the competition venue, and is a 6-lane 25-yard course with seating for 2,178.
