Men's, Women's Swimming and Diving named CSCAA Scholar All-Americans

RICHMOND, Va. – The Lehigh men's and women's swimming and diving teams have been recognized for their academic achievement, named to the Scholar All-America Team by the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA). The men and women earned GPAs of 3.31 and 3.26, respectively to earn the honors. In total, 728 teams from 450 colleges and universities were named Scholar All-Americans.

Those schools with a GPA of 3.3 or higher will now become eligible for the Intercollegiate Coach Association Coalition All-Sport Academic Standings.

"Coach Rob Herb is one of the mainstays of our sport and here is another reason why," said Greg Earhart, CSCAA Executive Director. "These 49 men and women are some of the best ambassadors that Lehigh and the Patriot League could ask for."

Both programs have been champions in the classroom and in the pool, as they continue competition with the final dual meet of the season on Friday evening at Army West Point, streaming live on ESPN+ (subscription required) at 5 p.m.
