13 Teams, 54 Student-Athletes Earn CSCAA Scholar All-America Honors

Fifty-four student-athletes from the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) were recognized on the 2025-26 College Swimming & Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Scholar All-America list. Of the 54 swimmers and divers honored, 50 earned First-Team recognition and four received Second-Team honors. Four NCAC programs placed individuals on the list, with Denison leading the way with 26 total selections.

Additionally, 13 NCAC teams, seven men's and six women's, were named to the CSCAA Scholar All-America Team list presented by Fitter & Faster Swim Camps for the spring semester. Denison, DePauw, John Carroll, Kenyon, Oberlin and Wooster earned the honor on both the men's and women's side, while Wabash earned it for its men's program.

To earn First-Team Scholar All-America honors, student-athletes must maintain a minimum GPA of 3.50 and compete at their respective national championship. Second-Team honorees also achieved a GPA of 3.50 or higher and either met the "B" time standard for nationals or participated in a diving zone qualification meet.

Teams earn Scholar All-America Team recognition by achieving a combined grade point average of 3.00 or higher during the Spring 2026 semester. Nationally, CSCAA recognized 714 teams from 418 institutions across all divisions, representing 16,680 student-athletes, and named more than 2,230 swimmers and divers to its individual Scholar All-America Team.

Founded in 1922, the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) is the nation's first organization of college coaches. The mission of the CSCAA is to advance the sport of swimming and diving with coaches at the epicenter of leadership, advocacy, and professional development. The CSCAA thanks presenting partner Fitter & Faster Swim Camps for its support of the Scholar All-America Team awards.
