COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) has selected the University of Evansville men's and women's swimming and diving teams for Scholar All-American honors. Evansville was one of 461 schools to receive the award for the Spring semester.  Teams were selected on the basis of their Spring grade point averages and represent 17,982 student-athletes.  
 
"Both Men's and Women's Swimming and Diving Teams have done a tremendous job this past year," Purple Aces head coach Stu Wilson said.  "After what we went through this spring, they still kept their focus in achieving their goals in the classroom.  I am very proud of this group. They were able to adjust to the changes this spring with determination."
 
Additional institutional adjustments to grading systems resulted in GPAs nearly one-quarter letter grade higher than previously. As a result, the CSCAA will not be publishing team GPAs.  This Semester's list also does not include teams at institutions that switched entirely to pass/fail grading.
 
CSCAA Executive Director Greg Earhart noted the work of Coach Wilson and his student-athletes. 
 
"No team was unaffected by this Spring's pandemic but Athletic Director Mark Spencer and President (Christopher M.) Pietruszkiewicz can and should be proud of their team and the work of Stuart."
