Five SAC Softball Student-Athletes Named to 2018 Google Cloud Academic All-District Team
ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) – Five softball student-athletes, representing three South Atlantic Conference institutions, have been named to the 2018 Google Cloud Academic All-District® Softball Team. Selected by CoSIDA, the Google Cloud Academic All-District® team recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.
First-team Academic All-District® honorees advance to the Google Cloud Academic All-America® ballot, with first- and second-team Academic All-America® honorees to be announced in June.
Earning first team honors from the SAC were Newberry's Chelsey Cunningham and Myranda Dills, Tusculum's Emily Hester and Morgan Mahaffey and Queens' Courtney Pearson.
The Google Cloud Academic All-District® teams include the student-athletes listed on the following pages and are divided into eight geographic districts across the United States and Canada. The Google Cloud Academic All-America® program separately recognizes honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and College Division. The College Division includes all NAIA, Canadian, two-year schools and other affiliations.
The Division II and III Google Cloud Academic All-America® program is partially financially supported by the NCAA Division II and III national governance structures, to assist CoSIDA with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2017-18 DII and DIII Academic All-America® teams.
