LARAMIE, Wyo. (5/19/25) – University of Wyoming Swimming and Diving head coach Dave Denniston announced the signings of sixteen swimmers and four divers to the program for the 2025-26 season. The incoming Cowboys and Cowgirls are listed below.
 
Incoming Cowboy Freshmen:
 
Cade Doherty Richmond, TX Foster HS Sprint
Jack Boysen Sugar Land, TX Kempner HS Sprint
Travis Ayers Manor, TX Weiss HS Back/Free
Edward Tsubasa Rhoe Houston, TX Lamar HS Sprint/Fly

"We are welcoming one of the most talented men's classes that we have had on the swim team in quite some time," Denniston said. "Jack Boysen's parents both swam at Wyoming and we know he will add a lot of speed to the sprint events and relays. We also have a top IMer in Jackson Kogler from Minnesota, who is capable of winning just about any event we put him in. We are excited for all of our swimmers from Texas, as they have a real desire to race and win. Two new divers with some amazing skills on the boards will be joining us this fall with Connor and Kael. Our very talented men's team is shaping up to be extremely fast and I anticipate us rewriting the record boards this season in a lot of events. This group of men has the ability to be one of the top teams in the conference for the Cowboys."
 
Incoming Cowgirl Freshmen:
 
Hadley Hayes Bend, OR Bend Senior HS Breast/IM
Katherine Beauchene Pleasant Valley, CT Northwestern Regional HS Free/IM
Isa Henderson Frisco, TX Frisco Reedy HS Distance

"[Associate head] coach Kristin Walker has once again done a brilliant job of assembling an outstanding class to welcome to Wyoming this fall," Denniston said. "Most of these swimmers have improved substantially since committing and we are excited for what the future holds for our women. This is a really well-rounded class with sprint strength from Ella, Raiden, Sienna and Rose. We are excited to have so many well-rounded swimmers with Katherine, Emma and Hadley joining our team for some Individual Medley depth. We are also excited to add divers, Sami and Savannah, to the team for diving. I think two things stand out about this group of women: They are competitive and love racing to win, and they are already close group of friends who will bring enthusiasm and passion to every practice they have together. I believe these women will help us climb to the top of the Mountain West for swimming and diving."
