CLEVELAND, Ohio - Two swimmers from the Cleveland State men's squad and two from the women's swimming team were named to the 2015-16 Horizon League Winter Academic All-League team that was announced on Wednesday afternoon.

Earning spots on the men's swimming team were juniors Philipp Sikatzki and Patrick Walsh, while junior Tori Taffner and sophomore Jamie VanDewerker were voted to the women's swimming team.
