Day Two of 2026 ACC Swimming & Diving Championships Complete

ATLANTA, G.A. (theACC.com) - Day two of the 2026 Atlantic Coast Conference Swimming and Diving Championships concluded in Atlanta, Georgia, at the McAuley Aquatic Center on Monday, February 16. After two days of diving-only events, Miami holds the lead on both the women’s side (146 points) and the men's side (139 points).

Georgia Tech’s Max Fowler repeated as the men’s 3-meter diving champion with a score of 459.75 through six dives, improving 37.85 points from his gold finish in 2025. Fowler’s first-place score is the second-highest 3-meter score in the ACC this season, just 11.78 points shy of his own 471.53 mark earlier this year.

Miami’s Matteo Santoro came in second with a final score of 422.80, while SMU’s Luke Sitz placed third with a score of 420.60.

Miami’s Margo O’Meara claimed gold in the women’s 1-meter, collecting her first conference title since finishing in first in the 1-meter as a freshman in 2022. Teammate Chiara Pellacani finished in second with a close score of 332.20, while North Carolina’s Sofia Knight rounded out the podium with a score of 300.25.
The top three finishers in each event, plus all members of the first-place relay teams at the ACC Championships, will be named to the All-ACC Team.
