Fifteen members of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Swimming and Diving Team were named to the Missouri Valley Conference’s 2019 Scholar-Athlete Team.

Nine Trojans earned a perfect 4.0 GPA during the semesters of competition. The student-athletes to achieve this feat include: Laura Ruiz Astorga, Jessie Baldwin, Amanda Dreyer, Vasiliki Falaina, Carolyn Ann Godwin, Palmer Ristroph, Katelyn White, Lea Zengerling and Avery McLean.

Ann Kharlamova earned a 3.83 GPA in her senior season, while Claire Bristow and Charis Won each recorded a 3.81 GPA during competition.
