LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) — UNLV men's swimming senior Reece Hemmens and women's swimming senior Kristina Schneider were named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District Men's and Women's At-Large Teams, respectively, the organization announced Thursday.

The duo claimed two of the combined 18 spots honored from the District 7 men's and women's teams that include all Division I programs from Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas.

Hemmens, a product of Newport Beach, Calif., is a human services major with a 3.94 cumulative GPA. The standout sprint specialist helped lead the Rebels to their second straight WAC team title in 2022.

A native of Cluj Napoca, Romania, Schneider graduated with her bachelor's degree in hospitality this month with a cumulative GPA of 3.76. This past season, Schneider repeated as Mountain West champion in the 100 free and anchored UNLV's 400 medley relay team to a MW title.
