Official Meet Psych Sheet

INDIANAPOLIS – Sophomore Hayden Koh of the Drew University men's swimming & diving team will continue his outstanding season March 15-18 when he travels to the Greensboro Aquatic Center in Greensboro, N.C. for the NCAA Division III Swimming & Diving Championships.
 
The NCAA released its official psych sheet for the meet on Wednesday and Koh will compete in two events – the 100-butterfly and 200-butterfly – after earning NCAA "B" cuts in both of them. He becomes Drew's first-ever NCAA qualifier in men's swimming & diving and the third overall, as Mal Vishwanath C'20 and Lauren Kenworthy C'99 represented the Ranger women's team on the national stage. Vishwanath swam at the 2018 championships while Kenworthy qualified every year from 1996-99.
 
The top-16 finishers in every event are named All-Americans, with the top-eight receiving first-team status and the ninth through 16th finishers receiving honorable mention.

Koh punched his ticket by virtue of his performance at the Ranger Invitational back on Dec. 2-3, when he clocked season-best times of 48.25 in the 100-fly and 1:48.56 in the 200-fly, setting meet, school, and Landmark Conference records in the process. He will enter the championships ranked 16th in the 200-fly and 21st in the 100-fly.
 
 Koh is also coming off a tremendous performance at the Landmark Conference Championships this past weekend, when he won six events while helping the Rangers score a meet-record 689 points to finish second in the team standings. He captured both butterfly races as well as the 100-backstroke, 200-freestyle relay, 200-medley relay, and 400-medley relay. He helped the 200-free relay team break the conference meet record while leading the 200-medley squad to both a meet and conference record.
 
For his career, Koh has won 12 Landmark Conference titles, owns nine school records and has set three Landmark Conference records. He also was named both the Landmark Conference Swimmer of the Year and Rookie of the Year in 2022.
