The Oswego State women’s swimming and diving team was recently recognized as an NCAA Division III Scholar All-America team by the College Swim Coaches Association of America, or CSCAA, for the 2008-09 season.  In order to be named on the list, teams must have had a combined team grade point average of 3.0 or higher during the Spring 2009 semester.

The Oswego State women’s track and field team also has been recognized as a NCAA Division III All-Academic team by the United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association for the 2009 season.

Track and FieldThe swimming and diving women’s team was one of three SUNYAC squads honored among 83 Division III institutions with a combined 3.31 GPA.  SUNY New Paltz (3.47) and SUNY Geneseo (3.29) were the other conference representatives.  Oswego State also had a pair of individual academic winners as Kelly Williams ’10 and Kara Sitnik ’11 were honorable mention selections.

The CSCAA produces the All-Academic list for track and field twice each year. The spring list also recognizes individual All-Academic team honorees that are selected on the basis of their performance in the pool and the classroom.

In order to be nominated for the award, the team must carry a minimum 3.1 cumulative grade point average.  The Laker women were one of five SUNYAC teams honored among 100 Division III institutions with a combined GPA of 3.12.  Brockport (3.37), Plattsburgh State (3.29), Geneseo (3.24), and Oneonta (3.2) were the other conference representatives.
