[2024-25 CSC Academic All-District Team]
Eighteen student-athletes from six institutions represented the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) on the 2024-25 College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District Team.
The program recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes basketball honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III, and NAIA.
San Francisco State, Cal State San Marcos, and Cal State Monterey Bay paced the way with four selections apiece. Cal Poly Pomona had three Academic All-District selections, and Stanislaus State had two. Isaiah Kerr was the lone representative from Chico State.
Kerr, along with Jeremiah Jones from Stanislaus State, Jaden Tengan from Cal State Monterey Bay, and Blake Jones from Cal State Monterey Bay, were selected as CSC Academic All-America® finalists. They will advance to the national ballot to be voted on by CSC members. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced on April 15.

To be considered for the honor, a student-athlete must be a starter or important reserve with at least a cumulative grade-point average of 3.50 at his/her current institution. Nominated athletes must have participated in at least 50% of the team's games at their position. No student-athlete is eligible until they have completed one full calendar year at their current institution and is at least a sophomore academically and athletically.
The Division II and III CSC Academic All-America® programs are partially financially supported by the NCAA Division II and III national governance structures to assist CSC with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2024-25 Divisions II and III Academic All-America® programs. The NAIA CSC Academic All-America® program is partially financially supported through the NAIA national office.
