WASHINGTON - For the 12th time in the last 14 seasons, American University has been honored by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA), earning the AVCA Team Academic Award for the 2024-25 school year. The award honors excellence in the classroom by recognizing teams that maintain at least a 3.3 cumulative GPA.
"It is very exciting to see that the record-setting, on-court successes during the 2024-25 season have extended to the classroom," says AVCA CEO Jaime Gordon. "The fact that more programs earned the Team Academic Award than ever before is evidence of how committed our coaches are when it comes to helping their players reach their goals as both students and athletes."
Overall, more than 1,450 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. This year's team held a 3.59 cumulative GPA.
