For recognition, the average GPA of all varsity players must be at least 3.25.
This is the third time in four years the Wreckers have won the award, and the sixth since it was instituted in 1999.
“I’ve always been proud of our team’s accomplishments, in the classroom as well as on the field,” said head coach Dan Woog. “I’m glad the NSCAA recognizes them too.”
