"This is a great honor for her," said women's head swimming coach Dave Jennings. "Not only is she one of our best distance swimmers, she is also one of our best in the classroom."

The district team is made up of student-athletes from Division I schools in Alabama, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee. To be nominated, student-athletes must be a starter or important reserve, and must carry a cumulative GPA of 3.20 or higher. Team members are chosen by a vote of members of the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) within the district.
