Texas Longhorns swimming and diving

The Texas Longhorns swimming and diving program represents The University of Texas at Austin in NCAA Division I intercollegiate men's and women's swimming and diving competition. The Longhorns currently compete in the Big 12 Conference.

The first swim team at the University of Texas was created and developed under Tex Robertson. Robertson was the head coach of the team between 1936 and 1943 and between 1946 and 1950. During that period he led the Longhorns to 13 Southwest Conference championships.

In 1979, Eddie Reese became the head coach of the men's swimming team. Under Reese, the Texas men's team has won 14 NCAA championships,[1] the most among all programs, and 39 consecutive conference championships as of the end of the 2018 season.[2] The women's team has won seven NCAA championships and two AIAW championships.[3]
