CSCAA Recognizes Mary Washington Women's Swimming for Academics

June 25 2019 – Colorado Springs, CO – The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association (CSCAA) has named the University of Mary Washington women's swimming team to its Scholar All-America team for the Spring 2019 Semester.  A record 480 institutions were named to the list, highlighted by St. Andrews's women's GPA of 3.35.
 
CSCAA Executive Director Greg Earhart noted: "Coach Anderson had a great deal to live up to in his first year, and this shows he's up to the challenge."
 
A record number of teams achieved Scholar All-America status in each NCAA Division with men's teams seeing the biggest gains.  The increase can be attributed to the growing number of men's teams.  "For three years now, we've seen schools add more men's teams than women's," explained Earhart, "and now we're seeing those new teams produce the caliber of student-athlete we've come to expect in swimming and diving."
 
At 3.45, the median GPA among women's teams was the highest on record.  The men's median (3.23) was down slightly from the Fall semester.
 
In Division III pair of academic stalwarts topped the list of 134 men's and 185 women's teams.  Macalester's women (3.79) edged out MIAC rival Saint Catherine's (3.76).  Macalester head coach Kyllian Griffin enthused, "We pride ourselves for challenging our students to be the absolute best they can be in the classroom, the pool and in the community and are proud of their successes in all aspects of their collegiate life."  Among men's teams, MIT once again led the way (3.76), just ahead of the Macalester men.  The Liberty League, placed the most teams (nine men, none women) onto the honor roll.  University Athletic Association and NESCAC followed with sixteen teams each with the UAA achieving 100% recognition.
 
The CSCAA will announce its individual Scholar All-Americans next week.
