The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America announced its spring 2025 Scholar All-America Teams, awarding both VMI men’s and women’s squads July 8, 2025.

To be eligible, teams must hold a GPA of 3.0 or higher during the spring 2025 semester.

“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,” said Samantha Barany, CSCAA executive director.

The recognition from the CSCAA follows another strong season under Scott Thacker, head coach, who led the VMI men to their first winning season since 2021 and the women’s side to their first Division I win since 2014.
