In a year of significant adversity, Michigan State swimming and diving teams have continued to make a splash in the classroom.
The Michigan State women's team posted a 3.87 grade-point average in the fall semester, the best showing in the nation, among all divisions. The men's team posted a 3.71, sixth in the nation, behind only American, Columbia, Georgetown, Harvard and Stanford.
The Michigan State swimming and diving programs were told in October they were being eliminated after this season, the first time the university has cut a sport in 20 years.
