BRIDGEWATER, Mass. -- One hundred seven Bridgewater State University student-athletes have been honored by the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC) with selection to the league’s Fall 2014 All-Academic Team that was released by MASCAC Commissioner Angela Baumann.
Student-athletes that compete in championship varsity sports offered by each of the MASCAC institutions during the course of the Fall 2014 athletic season and have achieved a 3.20 cumulative or semester-based grade point average during the semester are eligible for selection to the Fall All-Academic Team.
Westfield State University placed the most student-athletes on the Fall 2014 MASCAC All-Academic Team with 144 total, while Bridgewater State University (107), Worcester State University (99), Fitchburg State University (70) and Framingham State University (67) followed.
“I want to commend all the MASCAC institutions and affiliates on having such an incredible number of student-athletes honored on the Fall MASCAC All-Academic Team,” Commissioner Baumann said of this year’s squad.
Baumann added: “The fact that the number of honorees recognized is increasing each year is a testament to the hard work that they put in not only on the MASCAC fields and courts but in the classroom as well.”
The Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference, the nation’s oldest Division III men’s and women’s playing conference, has a rich and storied tradition of competitive success while celebrating excellence in the classroom.
MASCAC member schools include Bridgewater State University, Fitchburg State University, Framingham State University, MCLA, Massachusetts Maritime Academy, Salem State University, Westfield State University and Worcester State University. Two other institutions, the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and Plymouth State University, are affiliate members of the conference in the sports of football and men’s ice hockey, while Western Connecticut State University joined the conference as a football affiliate member in 2014.
