Sharks Receive CSCAA Scholar All-America Team Recognition
The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) has selected a record 762 programs from 480 institutions to the Scholar All-America Team for the Fall 2019 semester. Both the Nova Southeastern University men’s and women’s swimming teams found their names on the distinguished list. This past fall, the women’s team earned their highest team semester GPA to date with a 3.55 while the men earned their highest fall semester team GPA to date with a 3.26.
“We’re excited to be amongst the class of Div. II and the nation in being recognized as a Scholar All-American team once again,” boasted head coach Ben Hewitt. “We are thrilled with our performance — our teams work diligently in the classroom and the pool. Many thanks for Deanna Rivero and Rachel Fineberg and our Athletic Academic team for their continual contributions and efforts with all of our athletes.”
To earn the honor, teams were required to post a GPA of 3.0 or higher for the Fall Semester and maintain a roster of 12 or more student-athletes. Teams were selected on the basis of their Fall 2019 grade point averages and represent 17,685 student-athletes.
Another CSCAA Scholar All-America team will be announced at the conclusion of the spring semester, where individual student-athletes will also be recognized.
