Student-athletes that compete in championship varsity sports offered by each of the eight MASCAC institutions during the course of the recently completed Spring 2014 academic semester and have achieved a 3.20 cumulative or semester-based grade point average during the semester are eligible for selection to the Spring All-Academic Team.

"The number of MASCAC student-athletes recognized on the MASCAC All-Academic Team continues to increase each year which shows how committed our student-athletes are both in the classroom and on the field of play," Commissioner Baumann said.
