AUSTIN, Texas – Impressive road victories over No. 14 Auburn and No. 2 Georgia have vaulted Texas into the No. 1 slot atop the CSCAA (College Swimming Coaches Association of America) team poll released Wednesday. It marks the first No. 1 national ranking for the nine-time national champion Longhorns under fifth-year head coach Carol Capitani.
The bi-weekly CSCAA team poll reflects the recognized teams' strength in dual-meet competition, and Texas arguably boasts the most impressive collection of dual-meet wins this season.
Led by All-America seniors Madisyn Cox and Tasija Karosas, Texas boasts dual-meet wins over five of the nation's top-11 teams.
