Philadelphia - The Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America announced the receipients of the organization's All-Academic Awards as both the Drexel men's and women's swimming & diving teams were honored. The CSCAA All-Academic Award is given to programs that have a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher during the school year.
The men's swimming & diving team had a cumulative grade point average of 3.03 during the 2009-10 academic year. The squad had an outstanding season in the pool and on the boards as well as the Dragons toppled school records throughout the season-ending Colonial Athletic Association Championships. T.J. Southmayd claimed the CAA Championship in the 200 IM as he established a new school record in the event. Armagan Yavuz won the 200 fly for the third straight year with a time that not only broke Drexel's school record, it cracked the NCAA "B" cut time which could land him a spot at the NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships. Ian Jevnick took home the CAA's Most Outstanding Men's Diver Award by winning the 1-meter dive and placing second on the 3-meter board. Freshman Stephen Cal was named the CAA Men's Diving Rookie of the Year.
The women's swimming & diving team posted a 3.36 cumulative grade point average last season while shattering school records in competition. Three new Drexel individual records were set at the CAA Championships along with a new mark in the 200 medley relay. Maria Coman took down the 100 back record, Lauren Faykes knocked off the 200 back mark and Malin Wiberg established a new benchmark in the 200 breast. The three joined Morgan Cichewicz in the 200 medley relay to topple the old school mark.
