A whopping 416 programs, representing 252 institutions earned Academic All-American honors from the Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA).

Cross-state rivals Missouri-Rolla earned a 3.38 to lead Division II men while Georgetown's women (3.61) and American University's men (3.48) rounded out the NCAA leaders.
