CL Claims 62 CSC Academic All-District Awards for Cross Country and Track

JACKSON, Mich. - The Crossroads League placed 62 student-athletes on the 2025-2026 College Sports Communicators NAIA Men's and Women's Cross Country and Track and Field Academic All-District Teams. Grace, Indiana Wesleyan, Marian and Taylor all collected the maximum amount of 12 total honors, combining for 48 of the CL's awards, while Mount Vernon Nazarene added 10 and Goshen took four.

The CSC Academic All-District award is given to a student-athlete who maintains a 3.50 cumulative grade-point average while having reached sophomore status academically and having participated in at least 90 percent of their team's competitions throughout the current season. Individuals must also have been nominated by their Sports Information Department to make the list.

Each school is allowed up to six nominations each for its men's and women's cross country and track teams, with selected CSC Academic All-District recipients advancing to the ballot for CSC Academic All-America honors. Those awards will be voted on by members of CSC from around the nation and will be announced on July 14 and 15.
