A five-time NCAA All-American, Evdokimov graduated as one of the most decorated swimmers in school history. The school and Ivy League record-holder in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke events, he closed his career with a fourth place finish in the 100 breast and a fifth-place effort in the 200 breast at the 2018 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships to capture first-team All-America honors. He previously earned honorable mention All-America accolades in 2017 (13th in the 200, 14th in the 100) and in 2016 (15th in the 200). Evdokimov swept the 100 and 200 breast at the Ivy Championship in four consecutive seasons, becoming the first student-athlete to do so in the breaststroke and just the fourth swimmer to win four titles in more than one event. The school-record holder in the 100 and 200 breast and as part of the 400 free, 200 medley and 400 medley relays, he graduated with pool records at Cornell, Harvard, Princeton and Brown.
