EVANSVILLE, Ind. – The University of Evansville men's and women's swimming and diving teams made it a clean sweep in the classroom during the 2021-22 school year, as the Purple Aces have earned Scholar All-America Team honors from the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) for the spring 2022 semester. UE also earned the same honors on both the men's and women's sides in the fall 2021 semester.
The UE women posted an impressive 3.61 team grade point average in their championship season to rank 37th among Division I teams and earn CSCAA Scholar All-America Team honors. Meanwhile, the UE men ranked 30th nationally among Division I men's programs with a 3.42 team GPA in the spring. It marks the third-straight year in which both UE programs earned Scholar All-America Team honors under the direction of third-year head coach Stuart Wilson.
"Succeeding in the pool and in the classroom is one of the benchmarks of our program here at the University of Evansville," said Wilson. "I am really proud of the effort that the student-athletes put in both in the pool and in the classroom this year. To be ranked among the nation's top 40 on both the men's and women's sides is very impressive, and is a credit to the type of student-athlete that we have here at UE."
