COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – A pair of Ball State divers – Rachel Bertram and Caitlin Locante – were honored by the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) as Scholar All-Americans for their success in the pool and the classroom during the 2019-20 academic year.

She is a three-time CSCAA Scholar All-American who posted a 4.0 GPA in the spring semester.
Locante was named a CSCAA Scholar All-American for the first time. The junior from Brookfield, Wisconsin, also recorded a 4.0 GPA this spring. She placed eighth on the 1-meter board and 12th on the 3-meters at the league championships.
