PIAA Girls’ Swimming & Diving Team Champions
The Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (PIAA) has crowned team champions in girls’ swimming & diving since 1977. Each classification champion and additional schools from the Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League (WPIAL) have qualified for the PIAA Championships since its inception, with PIAA District VII claiming a total of 29 state champions in the sport.
The WPIAL has produced multiple PIAA team champions five times, doing so in 1996, 1997, 1999, 2002, and 2023. A total of eight different WPIAL schools have won PIAA titles, with Oakland Catholic’s nine being the most in league history. The other schools who have won a PIAA championship are: North Allegheny (8), Bethel Park (4), Gateway (3), Moon (2), Mt. Lebanon (1), Mt. Pleasant (1), and Norwin (1).
A full list of team champions by year and classification can be found below. The 2A classification did not have a champion crowned in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
