TALLAHASSEE – The Florida State men's swimming and diving team is ranked No. 16 in the CSCAA Division I November Poll, as announced Thursday afternoon by the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA).
The Seminole men moved up two spots from their No. 18 position in the October poll and are one of eight ACC programs ranked in the top-25, with another receiving votes.
In October, the Seminoles competed in the Dual Meet Tournament on October 17-18, defeating Army 547-231 before falling to then-No. 7 NC State and No. 20 Auburn. The team returned home the following week to host Florida Southern at the All Florida Invite on October 24, taking first place overall and winning 14 of 16 events.
Closing out the month, FSU defeated South Carolina 179-121 in its final home meet of the fall on October 31. November began with a tri-meet at LSU and against Alabama, where the Seminoles suffered narrow defeats against the two top-20 foes that are now ranked No. 13 and No. 14, respectively.
Sophomore Michel Arkhangelsky led the way for the Seminoles against the Gamecocks, earning ACC Swimmer of the Week honors for the second time this season on November 4. His first recognition came after his performance at the FSU Invite in September.
Florida State will continue the 2025-26 season at the Georgia Invitational from November 18-21 at Gabrielsen Natatorium in Athens, Georgia. Competing teams include host-No. 8/18 Georgia, No. 14/16 Alabama, No. 4/7 Florida, Georgia Tech and No. 13/11 LSU.
The midseason meet will close out Florida State's 2025 calendar as a team before the Seminoles return to competition on January 6, hosting Villanova at the Morcom Aquatics Center.
