WORCESTER — The College of the Holy Cross men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams have been recognized as Scholar All-America Teams by the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) for the 2025 spring semester — marking the 10th consecutive semester the Crusaders have earned the national academic distinction.

The Holy Cross women posted an impressive team GPA of 3.55, while the men achieved a 3.28, both comfortably surpassing the 3.0 threshold required for the award.

Out of 763 teams from 432 colleges and universities across the country, Holy Cross stood out as Worcester’s only institution to make the list.

The Scholar All-America award is presented by the CSCAA, the nation’s oldest organization of college swim coaches, founded in 1922. The organization honors programs that excel academically, furthering its mission of promoting leadership, advocacy and professional growth within the sport.
