COLUMBIA, Ky. - The Blue Raider men's swimming team improved their finish from the 2024 NAIA National Championships by two spots in 2025, earning seventh place and seven All-Americans.

Fabio Martin Rojo capped off his Lindsey Wilson career with top-eight finishes in the 500 and 1,650-yard freestyle. He also swam for the Blue Raiders' 200-yard freestyle relay, which placed sixth, tying the program's second-best-ever finish in the event. At the conference meet, Martin Rojo won the 200 and 500-yard freestyles, while teammate Sergio Ybarra coasted to victory in the 1,650-yard freestyle with a new championship record time.

Ybarra claimed Mid-South Freshman of the Year honors and set a new school record in the mile-long freestyle race during Lindsey Wilson's appearance in the Total Performance Invitational in November.

In the 200-yard breaststroke, Clinton Eales became Lindsey Wilson's second ever, and first since Jonas Mueller in 2016 to win a conference championship in the event, and doing so in school-record time. He went on to earn All-American honors in the race, as well.

As a team, Lindsey Wilson went 9-2 in dual meets and placed runner-up at the Mid-South Championships for the sixth consecutive year.
