The 2014-2015 Queens women’s swimming team claimed the University’s first NCAA National Championship alongside the men’s swimming team. The Royals took the top spot from Drury who had reigned supreme in six of the previous eight championships. Queens’ reign continued for seven championships, only coming to an end due to the Royals’ transition to Division I.
 
Patricia Castro-Ortega recorded four individual national record times as she touched first in every individual event she swam. Additionally, the women set a new national record in the 800-yard freestyle relay.
 
In total, the women earned five individual titles and two relay titles en route to claiming their first-ever NCAA DII Women’s Swimming National Championship.
 
Following the championship event, the Royals swept the individual awards as Patricia Castro-Ortega was named Swimmer of the Meet after winning four individual titles and two relay titles. Jeff Dugdale was named Coach of the Meet.
