A record 99 athletes earned Academic All-American status on Thursday from the U.S. Synchronized Swimming Collegiate Coaches Committee.

Athletes must earn at least a 3.25 grade point average (GPA) to be named an Academic All-American. The cumulative GPA of all competitors in the competition was a staggering 3.16.
Topping the list was senior Catherine Vrentas of Penn State University who has maintained a perfect 4.00 through 133 hours.
More than 200 of the nation’s top athletes from 23 universities are on hand vying for bragging rights in the solo, duet, trio and team events. The championships are an open-class meet, combining competition for NCAA Divisions I, II and III, plus NAIA schools.
Following is the list of Academic All-American honorees, sorted by university. The complete list is also available at www.usasynchro.org.
