The University of Saint Mary men's and women's swimming teams have yet again been named Spring Scholar All-America Teams by the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America. Each team is recognized based on outstanding academic performance during the Spring 2025 semester.

This comes as no surprise as both the men's and women's swim teams have received this honor every semester dating back to 2018 when the program first launched.

The Executive Director of the CSCAA, Samantha Barany, praised the honorees explaining, "These teams exemplify what it means to be true student-athletes. Their dedication to academic excellence, alongside their athletic commitments, is both impressive and inspiring. The CSCAA is proud to recognize and celebrate their hard work and achievement."

To qualify for the CSCAA national recognition, teams had to earn a 3.0 cumulative GPA. The Spires women's team earned a 3.59 GPA, ranking them top 10 in the nation, while the men finished with a 3.62 that landed them in the top 5. 

Head swimming coach David Bresser praises the efforts of his athletes noting, "We are incredibly proud of our student-athletes for earning Scholar All-America Team honors. This recognition reflects their dedication, hard work, and commitment. Balancing rigorous academic responsibilities with the demands of a competitive swimming schedule is no easy feat, and our team has demonstrated exceptional discipline and perseverance. The swimmers continue to impress and excel. I am extremely proud of their achievements."
