EVANSVILLE, Ind. – The Colorado School of Mines men's and women's swimming & diving teams closed their trip to the 2026 NCAA Division II Swimming & Diving Championships Saturday with a pair of all-America finishes.
 
Anna Bream provided one of the all-America swims after finishing 12th in the 200-breast with a time of 2:16.13. It made her a three-time all-American as a true freshman until she helped the women's 400-freestyle relay take 15th in the nation. Bream was the anchor for Jordan Tierney, Mikaela Khan, and Kaya Flaherty who all teamed up for a time of 3:29.65. Those two finishes boosted the Oredigger women to 67 points and a team finish of 16th – both NCAA-era bests for Mines' women. The historic finish was fueled by five all-American relays and five individual all-Americans. The Oredigger men boasted an all-American relay as well which provided them eight team points to finish tied for 26th in the nation.
 
Mines also saw quality results during Saturday's morning session. Kaya Flaherty placed 41st in the country in the women's 100-free. Jakson Winn was 47th in the nation in the men's 100-free. Cameryn Schmidt and Tierney joined Bream in the women's 200-breast, taking 31st and 35th, respectively. Julie Gill raced to 28th in DII in the women's 1650-free. Vladislav Kazakin was forced to pull his name out of the hat in the men's 1650-free due to injury.
 
Saturday brought Mines' swimming & diving season to a close. All postseason awards and offseason signings will be announced at www.minesathletics.com and on social media.
