Eight SAC Student-Athletes Named to Google Cloud Academic All-District Women's At-Large First Team
ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) - The 2018-19 Google Cloud Academic All-District® Women's At-Large Team, selected by CoSIDA, where released on Thursday (May 16). The South Atlantic Conference had eight student-athletes selected for the first team.
Recognizing the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances in the athletic realm and in the classroom, the Google Cloud Academic All-America® program separately recognizes outstanding student-athletes in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
Student-athletes from Wingate, Carson-Newman, Queens, Newberry, Tusculum and Lincoln Memorial earned first team honors. Wingate and Queens had two honorees each, while Carson-Newman, Newberry, Tusculum and Lincoln Memorial had one selection each.
First-team Academic All-District® honorees advance to the Google Cloud Academic All-America® ballot. First-, second- and third-team (if applicable) Academic All-America® honorees will be announced in June.
The Division II and III Google Cloud Academic All-America® programs are partially financially supported by the NCAA Division II and III national governance structures to assist CoSIDA with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2018-19 Divisions II and III Academic All-America® programs. The NAIA Google Cloud Academic All-America® program is partially financially supported through the NAIA national office.
