Schedule of Events: 200 medley relay, 800 freestyle, 200 freestyle, 50 freestyle, 200 individual medley, 1-meter dive, 100 butterfly, 100 freestyle, 100 backstroke, 400 freestyle, 3-meter dive, 100 breaststroke, 200 freestyle relay.

The Series: Including a tri-meet that also involved SUNY New Paltz last year, the Golden Knights have faced SUNY Potsdam in dual meets five times since Marc Danin took control of the program back in 2021-22, winning each of those matchups. Clarkson's men have averaged a 141-point margin of victory in that span, with that figure ballooning to 189 points in the last three meetings. The Golden Knights' women have also won all five meetings in that time frame, with an average margin of victory being 89 points, and the fewest spanning 71 points.

The Men: Casey Everett won a trio of events against the Bears a year ago, taking the 500 freestyle, 200 freestyle, and 200 butterfly. Gavin Stuhler won both of the sprint freestyle races, Landon Colby won the 100 butterfly, Owen White took the 100 backstroke, and Gavin Cibelli claimed each of the diving events against the Bears in the 2024-25 dual meet. Everett set three school records in the second semester last year and will certainly be gearing up to challenge those marks. Freshman Evan Paneras broke a pair of records in the butterfly events in December and could be setting himself up for a run at those once again in February.

The Women: Clarkson's women have less history against the Bears than the men do since the roster has comparatively little experience against SUNY Potsdam with only one junior and a handful of sophomores. Fiona Reilly won the 200 breaststroke and 200 individual medley a year ago against the Bears, while Aurora Zary took the 50 freestyle and 200 backstroke. Evelyn Vieira also won both of the diving events. Her last time out, Vieira broke her own school record in the 3-meter dive with 355.80 points.
