To be eligible for consideration, a student-athlete must be a starter or key reserve at the varsity level and achieve a 3.50 or better cumulative grade point average. All 10 are now under consideration for Academic All-American honors.

On the women’s side Caroline McMartin and Megan Johnson were named after participating with both teams. Abby Marr, Abbi Roerdink, and Amber Vroman are track and field only athletes who were selected. Men’s decathletes Lucas Heitz and Brody Klein were track and field only selections. Distance runners Noah Jorgenson, Adam Sylvia and Derek Webster were cited for both sports.
