Wooster an AVCA Team Academic Award Recipient Once Again
Scots claim 15th award in last 17 seasons
The College of Wooster qualified for the United States Marine Corps/American Volleyball Coaches Association Team Academic Award for the 15th time in the last 17 seasons. The AVCA recently announced the list of this year's qualifiers.
Wooster's individual academic honors were headlined by senior Sydney Fitzcharles, junior Trinity Harmon, senior Hayley Nash, and junior Tyara Thompson earning College Sports Communicators Academic All-District® certificates. Earlier this summer, volleyball placed 60 percent of eligible team members of the North Coast Athletic Conference's Academic Honor Roll, with the team being one of 12 at the College to have at least 50 percent of student-athletes make the grade.
The AVCA Team Academic Award was started following the 1992-93 academic year. Team must have a GPA of at least 3.30 to qualify. Over 1,300 collegiate and high school teams made this year's list.
