CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa – The American Rivers Conference announced its 2025-26 Women's Swimming and Diving preseason coaches' poll Tuesday. The Kohawk women were picked fourth in the poll by the coaches, earning a total of seven points while league favorite Luther earned 16 points and four first-place votes. Coe returns five all-conference performers from the 2024-25 season with Olivia Feuling, Hollye Gutierrez, Valerie Gutierrez, Devyn Nabarrete and Natalie Pirozek returning to the pool to anchor the squad. Three newcomers join the team as Erica Divizio, Jordan Hughes and Olivia Schminke looking to make an instant impact for the Kohawks. 
 
Coe's season begins this weekend with a home-opening dual meet against Illinois College (10/11) before an A-R-C dual matchup against Loras (10/24) to end October's action. The Kohawks then hit the road for an in-state dual at Grinnell (11/14) before the Luther College Invite (11/21-22) wraps up the 2025 portion of their schedule. 
 
Coe opens 2026 with its second straight trip to California, competing with Whittier College (1/6) during the training trip out West. The Kohawks then compete in a triangular meet in Rock Island, taking on Monmouth College and host Augustana (1/10) to wrap up non-conference head-to-head competitions. Coe is in action at its final two-day meet the following weekend at Grinnell (1/16-17) before concluding A-R-C dual competition against Luther (1/31) at home and Simpson (2/7) on the road. The season culminates with the 2026 American Rivers Conference Championships, hosted by Luther College February 19, 20 and 21 in Decorah.
