Jul 16, 2024

Six hundred thirty-seven student-athletes placed their name on the CCAA honor roll for the 2024 winter and spring sports seasons.  
 
The student-athlete must be of sophomore athletic standing or higher and own a 3.3 cumulative GPA or better while competing in a conference-sponsored sport in that season to earn a place on the CCAA Academic Honor Roll. The CCAA Winter Academic Honor Roll consists of eligible student-athletes who compete in men's and women's basketball. The CCAA Spring Academic Honor Roll consists of eligible student-athletes who compete in men's and women's golf, men's and women's track & field, baseball, and softball.
 
Chico State and Cal State San Marcos tied with 73 selections to lead the conference. Cal State East Bay's 66 selections placed the Pioneers third, and Cal Poly Pomona finished fourth with 60. At least 33 student-athletes represented each of the 12 CCAA member-institutions. Click here to see the complete list.
 
By sport, baseball topped the list with 163 honorees. Women's track & field followed with 132 selections. Softball was next with 96. Men's track & field (86) and women's basketball (66) rounded out the top five.
 
Of the 637 honor roll selections, 471 were repeat winners. Twenty-two claimed the honor for the third time, and 16 earned the award for the fourth time in their career. Niko Diaz (Cal State San Marcos baseball), Jaxon Leduc (Cal Poly Humboldt men's track & field), Ryan Fields (Cal Poly Pomona men's track & field), and Ayana Fields (Cal Poly Pomona women's track & field) all had the unique opportunity to collect a CCAA Honor Roll award for the fifth time in their careers because of the extra year gained in the pandemic. All three earned their first CCAA Academic honor in the winter/spring of 2020.
 
The CCAA recognizes individuals academically per season – fall, winter, and spring – for all CCAA-sponsored sports. The CCAA Fall Academic Honor Roll consists of eligible student-athletes who compete in men's and women's cross country, men's and women's soccer, and volleyball.
