AUBURN, Ala. – The men's and women's teams for Auburn swimming and diving were each selected by the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) as a Scholar All-America Team for the Fall 2021 semester, the organization announced this week.
The Auburn women finished with a 3.64 GPA, highest among all women's teams in the Southeastern Conference, while the men posted a GPA of 3.27.
In total, 728 teams from 450 colleges and universities earned the honor. Those with a GPA of 3.3 or higher will now become eligible for the Intercollegiate Coach Association Coalition All-Sport Academic Standings.
"Coach (Ryan) Wochomurka has stepped right in and done tremendous things, this being just the latest," CSCAA Executive Director Greg Earhart said. "These 68 men and women are some of the best ambassadors that Auburn and the SEC could ask for."
The teams were selected by the CSCAA's Scholar All-America committee on the basis of their spring grade point averages. To earn the honor, teams were required to post a GPA of 3.0 or higher for the spring semester.
This marks the sixth straight semester that Auburn has had its men's and women's teams named Scholar All-America Teams. Both teams raised their GPAs from the Spring 2021 semester when the women had a 3.52 and the men had a 3.20.
