Individual Scholar All-American honors were awarded to varsity athletes who competed
in the National Championship and maintained a GPA of 3.5 or better throughout the
fall semester of competition. Honorable mention was awarded to varsity athletes who
competed in at least one 2018 Women’s Collegiate Triathlon Regional Qualifier, but
not the National Championships, and maintained a GPA of 3.5 or better throughout the
2018 fall semester of competition.
