Lisoway, majoring in computer science, was one of the seven honorees with a perfect GPA<\/abbr> and the first member of the UH<\/abbr> men\u2019s swimming and diving team to earn this recognition since 2004.<\/p>\n

He also received the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America’s Scholar All-America award multiple times. Recently, he received the Jenny Matsuda Award—the UH<\/abbr> Athletics Department’s highest academic honor—for the fourth straight year.<\/p>\n

In the pool, Lisoway won the 100 breaststroke title and swam on two record-breaking relay teams at the MPSF<\/abbr> Swimming and Diving Championships in February. He contributed 47 points to UH<\/abbr>‘s total to help the Rainbow Warriors capture their first team championship since 2020. He earned AllMPSF<\/abbr> first-team honors in four events and made the second team in the 200 individual medley.<\/p>\n
