The first Warrior to repeat as a MAC champion in men's swimming in nearly a decade when he won his second title in the 100-yard butterfly in 2015, Daniel Woods was described by head coach Jerry Hammaker as "a flat-out racer." A racer that stepped into the MAC spotlight as a freshman when he finished second in the 100-yard butterfly, he never finished worse than second at the MAC Championship in the race. In all, he was a two-time MAC champion, a three-time runner up and he also added five other First Team All-MAC honors and 10 other Second Team All-MAC honors during his career. He set four school records during his career, two of which still stand in the 100-yard butterfly (50.73) and the 200-yard medley relay (1:36.48). Woods broke the 100-yard butterfly record, alone, five times in his career. A three-time MAC Swimmer of the Week, Woods also set records in the 100-yard breaststroke (58.84) and the 400-yard medley relay (3:33.06) that have been broken. The East Stroudsburg, Pa., native was a key member of the 8-1 2012-13 team which posted the program's best record in 48 years and as a junior in 2014, he won the school's first MAC title in eight years in the 100-yard butterfly. His time the next year may have been a tenth of a second slower, but his comeback in the final 25 yards to take the title was Woods being a racer at his finest.
 
Woods still stays active, swimming when he gets the chance, and he has taken up rock climbing. He currently works in New York City on the set of "Only Murderers in the Building," serving as the Best Boy Rigging Grip.
