LAWRENCE, Kan. – The Kansas women's swimming and diving team was named to the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Scholar All-America team, marking Kansas' 44^th-consecutive semester earning the honor.

The Jayhawks posted a team GPA of 3.79 to earn the All-America team honors, which ranked as the highest GPA in the Big 12 Conference and tied for seventh among Division I schools. In total, 722 teams from 417 institutions received the honor for the Spring 2024 semester.

"The team had a fantastic semester," said Kansas head coach Clark Campbell. "Our academic advisor, Laura Jacobsen, plays such an important role of making sure each student-athlete is set up for success. That work pays off each year but the program hit it out of the park this spring."

Kansas swimming and diving has been recognized by the organization for the 44th-consecutive semester, while the Jayhawks have held a GPA of 3.60 or higher for 13-straight semesters. To qualify for this prestigious recognition, teams had to earn a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 during the Spring 2024 semester.

Announced by the CSCAA earlier this July, Shiyun Lai, Lezli Sisung, Lauren Gryboski and Lize van Leeuwen were named Spring Individual Scholar All-Americans.

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.
