EVANSVILLE, Ind. – For the fourth-straight year, the University of Evansville men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams have earned Scholar All-America Team honors from the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) for their work in the classroom during the fall 2022 semester.
The UE women were one of 188 Division I women’s programs to earn CSCAA Scholar All-America Team honors while compiling a 3.61 team GPA during the fall. Meanwhile, the UE men were one of 121 Division I men’s programs to garner the award after posting a 3.33 team GPA in the fall. Both UE programs have now earned Scholar All-America Team honors each semester over the last four years under the direction of fourth-year head coach Stuart Wilson.
“We take a lot of pride here at the University of Evansville in terms of succeeding both in the pool and in the classroom,” said Wilson. “I am really proud of the effort that the student-athletes put in both in the pool and in the classroom this past fall. They really excelled in both areas this fall.”
Evansville is a part of two different conferences which had 100 percent of their membership earn Scholar All-America team honors, as both the Missouri Valley Conference on the women’s side and Mid-American Conference on the men’s side achieved that mark.
The Purple Aces will return to action next at their conference championship meets, as the MVC Women’s Swimming & Diving Championships will take place February 15-18 in Iowa City, Iowa, while the men’s MAC Swimming & Diving Championships will take place March 1-4 in Oxford, Ohio.
