Ten CCAA member institutions were represented by 22 women's basketball student-athletes on the 2024-25 Academic All-District® Team, as selected by the
College Sports Communicators.
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 soccer honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III, and NAIA.
Cal Poly Pomona led the way with four Academic All-District selections.
Cal State East Bay,
Cal State Monterey Bay, and
Chico State each placed three on the team. Cal State LA and Cal State San Marcos also had multiple student-athletes earn a spot on the Academic All-District team.
Cal State LA's
Lily Buggs, Cal State East Bay's
Taylor Eldredge, and Chico State's
Makenzi Laporte , along with Cal Poly Pomona's
Breanne Ha and
Sydney Nelson, 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.
