WASHINGTON - For the 11th time in the last 13 seasons, American University has been honored by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA), earning the AVCA Team Academic Award for the 2023-24 school year. The award honors excellence in the classroom by recognizing teams that maintain at least a 3.3 cumulative GPA.
"We are pleased that the record-setting success of the 2023-24 season on the court has extended to the classroom, too, as evidenced by more programs earning the Team Academic Award than ever before," says AVCA CEO Jaime Gordon. "This is a great example of how committed our coaches are when it comes to helping their players reach their full potential as both students and athletes."
Overall, more than 1,400 teams between women's and men's high school and college volleyball earned the distinction this year.
Earlier this year, 15 Eagles were named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll.
