The Michigan Community College Athletic Association (MCCAA) and the National Junior College Athletic Association announced the 2019-20 NJCAA and MCCAA Academic Award winners this week.
Five of Schoolcraft’s nine sports teams have been recognized by the NJCAA and MCCAA for All-Academic Team honors. To earn team honors, a team must have a cumulative GPA for all athletes of 3.0 or higher.
Schoolcraft’s women’s softball team claimed the top slot for having the highest cumulative grade-point average (GPA) of any athletic team in Michigan, with a team GPA of 3.64.
Four other Schoolcraft teams were recognized on the list for their high achieving student-athletes; men’s baseball had a team GPA of 3.29, men’s soccer had a team GPA of 3.04, women’s soccer and women’s bowling both had a team GPA of 3.03. All five teams were similarly recognized by the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA), ending up on their 2019-20 All-Academic Teams list.
Some Schoolcraft student-athletes were also recognized for their academic achievements at the individual level.
This recognition comes from both the MCCAA and the NJCAA. Individual award winners from the NJCAA All-Academic First Team had a GPA of 4.00, the NJCAA All-Academic Second Team had GPAs in the 3.80-3.99 range and the NJCAA All-Academic Third Team had GPAs ranging from 3.60-3.79.
