Lake Forest College senior swimmer Rob Edgell, a native of Alsager, England, has been named to the 11-member 1999-2000 GTE Academic All-District Five College At-Large Team. The team is comprised of student-athletes attending NCAA Division II and III and NAIA schools in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. He will now be considered for Academic All-American status. This is Edgell's second such All-District honor and he was a Third Team Academic All-American last year.

Edgell is three-time Midwest Conference Swimmer of the Year (1997, 1998, and 2000) and finished his career having never lost an individual event at the conference meet. During his career, he recorded six All-American swims, including three such swims at the 2000 NCAA Championships. Edgell holds eight schools records (six individual and relay events).
