    Men's Swimming
The 2014-2015 Queens men’s swimming team claimed the University’s first NCAA National Championship alongside the women’s swimming team. The victory for the Royals ended a 10-year run for the Drury University men’s swimming team and started a seven-year run for Queens; a streak that was only ended due to the Royals’ transition to Division I.
 
Matthew Josa and Nicholas Arakelian combined for five individual national record times in the pool. Additionally, the men’s 400-yard medley and 800-yard freestyle relays clocked times that set new national records at the time.
 
In total, the men collected eight individual titles and two relay titles en route to claiming their first-ever NCAA DII Men’s Swimming National Championship.
 
Following the championship event, the Royals swept the individual awards as Matthew Josa was named Swimmer of the Meet and Jeff Dugdale was named Coach of the Meet. Josa claimed four individual titles and swam on both relay teams that topped the podium. Additionally, Arakelian earned four individual titles and swam in the 800-yard freestyle relay that raced to victory.
