Pittsburgh, Pa. - The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) announced its Spring 2026 Scholar All-America Teams on Wednesday, with the Duquesne swimming and diving program once again earning recognition among the nation's top academic teams.

To receive this prestigious honor, teams were required to achieve a grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 or higher during the Spring 2026 semester.

The Dukes earned CSCAA Scholar All-America Team honors after posting an impressive 3.85 team GPA among 25 student-athletes during the Spring 2026 semester, tying for the fourth-highest GPA in the nation. Under the leadership of head coach David Sheets, Duquesne is no stranger to the prestigious recognition. The Dukes also earned CSCAA Scholar All-America Team honors this past fall after recording a 3.81 GPA among 25 student-athletes, tied for the second-highest mark in the nation across all NCAA Division I men's and women's swimming and diving programs. Duquesne has been a consistent presence on the Scholar All-America Team list for more than a decade.

Founded in 1922, the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) is the nation's first organization of college coaches.
