In Fall of 2024, Xavier Swim & Dive scored 398 points en route to a Division 1 State Championship. This last weekend, 11/7 & 11/8, in 2025, the Gators scored twenty-two more points than last year, 420, but placed second to the 490 points of Desert Vista.
The Future is Bright for the Xavier Swim & Dive Program. - We had two event winners: one a Frosh (Ainsley Boerckel) and the other a Sophomore (Adelyn Burns). - Five Frosh and four Sophomores scored in individual events in State for the Gators, compared to two Juniors and two Seniors. - State scoring came mostly from the Freshmen, followed by the Sophomores.
