1984-85 Swimming Team - NCAA Div. II National Champions

The 1984-85 NCAA Division II national champion women's swimming team of Nancy Bercaw, Suzanne Crenshaw, Susan Duncan, Merit Greaves, Tracey Hayes, Dawn Hewitt, Alicia McHugh, Margaret Mortell, Julie Muller, Joni Troupe, assistant coach Lou Manganiello and head coach Bill Mann hold the honor of winning the first-ever team national championship for USF.

The team brought honor and prestige to the school. The amount of individual national championships, All-America honors and school records accumulated by the 1984-85 team is simply daunting. The Bulls won five individual national titles, two relay national titles and racked up 35 All-America honors in 1985 alone, and well more than 100 during the careers of the 10 NCAA competitors.
