Dennis O'Brien earned all-America honors in the 200-yard butterfly in 1956 and 1957, the first Miami swimmer to earn all-America recognition.

As a sophomore, in his first year of varsity competition, he led Miami to its first MAC team championship. In the summer following his sophomore year, he swam on two American record-setting relay teams for the Cincinnati Coca-colas, a nearby AAU team. At one point during his junior season, he held the world record in the 50-yard butterfly.
