Morawski-led Crimson captured the 12th conference title in program history with 1500.5 points. Harvard racked up 14 All-Ivy honors in the winning effort, inluding seven first team honors, the most of any school. Platform diver Jing Leung '18 went on to capture first team All-America honors at the NCAA Championship meet, with Sonia Wang '19 competing in three events at the championships. In the classroom, the Crimson was named a Scholar All-America Team. The 2014-15 campaign saw the Crimson go 6-0-1 in regular season meets against the Ancient Eight. At the annual HYP Meet, Harvard dispatched of Yale and concluded a thrilling meet in a dead heat with Princeton. Harvard went on to take second at the Ivy League Championships, with  In 2013-14, Morawski and her Crimson claimed the Ivy League Championship after a thrilling finish to the three-day event. Harvard finished the season 6-1 overall, winning every dual meet against its Ancient Eight foes after the first weekend of the season. Three seasons ago, Morawski led the Crimson to its second straight 7-0 Ivy League dual record and a 9-0 dual mark overall. Harvard qualified two swimmers for the NCAA Championships, Sara Li '14 and Courtney Otto '15, and broke 10 school records over the course of the season (eight individual, two relay). The Crimson also swept Princeton and Yale at the annual HYP meet for the second time in as many tries with a 100-point win over Princeton and a 209-89 blowout over Yale at the Tigers' Denunzio Pool.  In 2011-12, Morawski led Harvard to the Ivy League Dual Meet Championship with a perfect 7-0 record against the Ancient Eight and to the program's 10th Ivy League Championship with a wire-to-wire performance at the league meet. This was the third Ivy League title of Morawski's head coaching career as her athletes earned a total of 12 All-Ivy honors. Another 2011-12 highlight came at the HYP meet as Harvard defeated Princeton, 190-110, to secure the Ivy League Dual Meet crown, and end the Tigers' streak of 43 consecutive wins and its run as the five-time reigning dual meet champs. The Harvard women's swimming record book has been rewritten in recent seasons under Morawski. Her teams have broken every swimming record since 2005. Morawski comes into the 2012-13 season with a 113-24 overall record and an 91-20 Ivy League mark. In 2009-10, Morawski led the Crimson to second-place finishes at both the ECAC and Ivy League Championships. Alexandra Clarke '10 and Kate Mills '11 qualified for the NCAA Championships and Clarke attained All-America status in the 1,650-yard freestyle event. Morawski also saw her team garner CSCAA All-Academic honors and top the mid-major rankings during the 2009-10 season. Morawski presided over a season of unprecedented success for the Crimson in 2008-09 season. Her team won the Ivy League and ECAC championships, finished the season ranked 25th nationally, set school records in 12 events and sent two competitors to the NCAA Championships. Two swimmers were named CSCAA Scholar All-Americans and four others earned honorable mention for that award. Morawski completed a full circle in the 2004-05 season, leading the Crimson to a 10-0 record and its first team title at the Ivy League Championships since she captained the 1992 title squad. She also coached the first two Harvard All-Americans since she earned the honor as a senior. The 2004-05 team went 7-0 against Ivy League foes to become the first Crimson squad since 1995-96 to win a league dual-meet crown. The Crimson posted another 10-0 campaign under Morawski in 2005-06, winning all seven Ivy League dual meets for its second straight dual-meet title. Her squad also won its first five meets of 2006-07, extending its winning streak to 25 dual meets. Under Morawski's direction, Harvard has won 36 Ivy League or Eastern individual swimming championships, five diving titles and 10 relays. Morawski has coached one national champion, 2004 U.S. 200 butterfly champion Noelle Bassi, who also finished sixth at the 2004 U.S. Olympic Trials. Bassi also owns two of the four All-America honors achieved under Morawski.

Kolbe won four medals in the 2007 Parapan Am Games, including a gold in the 50 backstroke, and has been selected to two U.S. Paralympic teams. Before taking over as Harvard's head coach, Morawski was an assistant coach with the Crimson for two years, working with head coach Maura Costin Scalise '80. She played an integral part in Harvard's 1996 Ivy League dual-meet championship as an assistant coach. Morawski complied a long list of accolades as a student-athlete before entering the coaching ranks. A former team captain, she is a two-time All-America selection, a three-time NCAA Championships qualifier and two-time Olympic Trials qualifier. Her school-record time of 2:15.06 in the 200-yard breaststroke stood until 2005, when Pangilinan broke it at the NCAA meet on the way to All-America status. Morawski helped Harvard to a combined dual-meet record of 33-3 in her four years with the Crimson.

Additionally, Jing Leung took first team All-America honors at the NCAA Championships on the platform. In 2015, Mosca became just the third diver in Ivy League history to sweep the 1- and 3-meter at three consecutive Ivy League Championships. In 2013-14, Harvards divers were exceptionally strong. Five women finished in the top-9 in the 1-meter event and in the top-13 on 3-meter. For the men, Mosca repeated as Ivy Champion on both 1-meter and 3-meter, with Joe Zarrella 14 claiming third in both events.

Amanda Kulik was named The Costin Family Head Coach for Harvard Women's Swimming & Diving in the summer of 2023, following 10 seasons on the staff of Stephanie Wriede Morawski '92, who announced her decision to leave coaching after 26 seasons at the helm of the program. The 2025-26 campaign will mark Kulik's third leading the Crimson and her 13th season overall in Cambridge. In Year 1 at the helm, Kulik continued the program's tradition of contending for an Ivy League championship as the Crimson finished in second place at the 2024 conference meet. Harvard, which was closing in on the top spot of the team standings on the final day of the championships, won five events before sending four athletes to the NCAA Championships -- the program's most since 2019. Harvard built on the foundation laid in Year 1 by completing the 2024-25 campaign with a perfect 10-0 dual-meet record, which included a sweep of the annual HYP meet. The Crimson's 10-0 record was its first since 2006, while its Ivy dual-meet title -- as a result of its 7-0 performance -- was its first since 2015. The HYP win, meanwhile, marked the program's first since 2014. Harvard fell short of its goal of winning the Ivy League crown, finishing in second place, but won nine events, with Alexandra Bastone taking home Co-High Point Swimmer of the Meet honors. Bastone, along with Nina Janmyr and Remi Edvalson, later earned NCAA Championship berths, securing the program's 13th straight season of appearing at the national meet.   A former two-sport athlete at Trinity College, Kulik joined the Crimson as an assistant coach in Nov. 2013, before being promoted to associate head coach in Aug. 2017. In 10 seasons, Harvard arguably enjoyed its most successful period with Kulik on the coaching staff.   During her assistant-coach tenure in Cambridge, Kulik helped the Crimson finish in first or second place at the Ivy League Championships in each of the nine seasons in which the conference meet was held (2021 – Did not compete due to pandemic), with Harvard claiming trophies in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2022. In addition to winning team titles, Kulik coached 13 athletes who qualified for the NCAA Championships, including a pair that finished in the top 20 nationally in their respective events (Miki Dahlke '20 – 17th in 200 free in 2019; Felicia Pasadyn '22 – 15th in 400 IM in 2022), six NCAA All-Americans and an NCAA Elite 90 recipient (Pasadyn '22), all while watching 18 program records be established.   Kulik's impact, however, was not limited to the pool. In addition to handling recruiting, travel logistics and operations, Kulik was instrumental in the development of the program's student-athletes. She served as an advisor and mentor, while fostering growth through the program's Leadership Council, the team's diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, and its work in the community. Harvard also excelled in the classroom during Kulik's tenure, earning College Swimming & Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Scholar All-America Team honors every semester in which the CSCAA released GPAs. In the Spring of 2021, the Crimson posted the top term GPA in NCAA Division I at 3.90.   Before joining Morawski at Blodgett Pool, Kulik was an assistant coach at Smith College in Northampton for two full seasons (Sept. 2011-Nov. 2013). She was involved with all aspects of the program, including program creation, outreach, recruiting, travel, and fundraising.   After earning her bachelor's degree in Hispanic studies with a minor in performing arts from Trinity in 2008, Kulik joined the Eaglebrook School swimming staff in Deerfield, assisting with the varsity and junior varsity teams from Sept. 2008-June 2011, while also teaching Spanish. During the summer of 2009 and 2010, Kulik served as an assistant athletic director, overseeing the daily operations on campus.   During her time at Smith and Harvard, Kulik helped grow the sport of swimming in their respective communities. While at Smith, she was a masters coach, helping swimmers reach their various personal goals. Then when she arrived in the Greater Boston Area, Kulik was a summer coordinator for Swimming Saves Lives and a masters coach with Charles River Aquatics before serving as its director of competitive swimming. She also worked at the Harvard Technique Swim Academy in the summertime, spanning her tenure at Smith and with the Crimson.   Recognized as a Harvard Hero (April 2023) by the University's Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Kulik was a co-captain of Trinity's women's swimming and diving and women's rowing teams, while landing on the Trinity College Dean's List.   In the pool, she was a NESCAC All-Academic Team selection, voted the team's Most Improved Woman Swimmer and finished her career in the Bantams' all-time top 10 in the 50-, 100- and 200-yard backstroke. Meanwhile in the boat, she was a CRCA Div. II-III National Scholar-Athlete and helped the Bantams to a pair of second- and third-place performances at the NCAA Div. III National Regatta.   In addition to obtaining her bachelor's degree from Trinity, Kulik earned her master's degree from Smith College in exercise & sports studies in May 2013.
