CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Division 2 Athletics Directors Association (D2 ADA) announced the 2024-25 recipients of the D2 ADA Academic Achievement Awards Thursday morning. The Academic Achievement Awards, in its 18th year, is a program that recognizes the academic accomplishments of student-athletes at the Division II level in NCAA sponsored sports.
For the first time since inception, there were more than 20,000 student-athletes recognized (22,756) from a record 202 institutions for the 2024-25 Academic Achievement Awards. This year's totals are the highest in the program's history.
Historically, 190,032 total student-athletes have been recognized since the inception of the awards program.
To be recognized for the award, student-athletes must have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale. They must have completed a minimum of two years (four semesters) of college level work at a two-year and/or four-year institution and must have been an active member of an intercollegiate team during the previous academic year.
The Beavers found 134 student-athletes on the list this year. This lineup towers over last year's number of 90 student-athletes. BSU Football brought in the largest number of honorees at 32, followed by soccer with 18 and track and field at 17.
