TEMPE, Ariz. – Dominican women's tennis earned its second consecutive ITA All-Academic Team honor, while Skyler Schaar and Taylor Lim were named as ITA Scholar-Athlete status as announced by the ITA Wednesday.

It was the fourth time the Penguins have earned the team honor from the ITA and the first time to do so in back-to-back years. Schaar joined Solveig Karlsen as the only Dominican women's tennis players to earn multiple ITA Scholar-Athlete recognitions. Schaar finished her Dominican career with a 3.74 GPA while majoring in business. Lim, a nursing major, earned her first recognition with a 3.91 GPA to cap off a successful freshman season.

The ITA All-Academic Team award takes into account all varsity letter winners in a season and is open to any ITA program that has a grade-point average of 3.20 or above (on a 4.00 scale) for the cumulative year.

In order to earn ITA Scholar-Athlete status a player must be a varsity letter winner, have a grade-point average of at least 3.50 (on a 4.00 scale) for the current academic year, and have been enrolled at their present school for at least two semesters.
