WASHINGTON - The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) announced its Scholar All-America Teams for the spring 2024 semester, naming both GW men's and women's swimming & diving to the Scholar All-America list based on their outstanding academic performance during the semester.
To qualify for this prestigious recognition, teams had to earn a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher during the spring 2024 semester. The GW women's team finished the spring 2024 semester with a cumulative 3.58 GPA, while the men's team finished with a cumulative 3.19 GPA.
"Being recognized as CSCAA Academic All-Americans is a testament to our athletes' dedication both in and out of the pool," said assistant coach Kyrylo Shvets.

Along with GW's selections as Scholar All-America Teams, the Atlantic 10 Conference was selected as a Scholar All-America Conference for both the men and women, one of just 11 conferences across all three NCAA divisions to do so.
