The four-day meet runs from Wednesday, Mar. 15 through Saturday, Mar. 19.

The Bruins are sending a group of seven student-athletes to NCAAs this year, the most for the program since the 2016 national meet. UCLA's contingent includes five swimmers and two divers.

UCLA, ranked No. 21 in the latest CSCAA Top-25, is coming off a fourth-place finish at the 2023 Pac-12 Championships, the program's fourth consecutive top-four finish at Pac-12s. The Bruins went 6-3 in dual meets during the regular season, and also finished first at the Fresno State Invitational and UNLV Invitational.
