The men's program, led by Matt Roberts, garnered a 3.58 team GPA. It marked the 13th straight season and the 20th overall ITA All-Academic Team honor in program history.
The women's team, headed by Daryl Greenan, came away with a 3.43 team GPA to claim its 12th consecutive award and the program's 22nd overall ITA All-Academic Team selection.
Individually, each program had six players tuck away ITA Scholar-Athlete status.
Emma Antonaki (Management), Chloé Cirotte (Undecided), Marta Falceto (Mathematics), Valeria Nikolaev (Kinesiology), Lilian Poling (Workforce Education Leadership – Masters) and Tamara Racine (Fashion Design and Merchandising) represented the women's team.
