CSC Release
Twelve Big West student-athletes representing three member-institutions were honored as members of the College Sports Communicators (CSC) 2025 Academic All-District® Men’s and Women's Tennis Teams. The announcement was made on Tuesday via the CSC website. 

The CSC academic awards program recognizes the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.

UC San Diego led The Big West with five honorees, while CSUN had four. UC Irvine placed three on the Academic All-District list. 

The academic qualifications for the distinction are a minimum 3.50 cumulative grade-point average. Nominated student-athletes must have participated in at least 50 percent of the team's games this season, and should be a starter or important reserve on the field of play. All Academic All-District® honorees advance to the CSC Academic All-America® ballot. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America® honorees in four divisions - NCAA Division I, Division II, Division III and NAIA - will be announced in April. 

College Sports Communicators began the distinguished Academic All-America® program in 1952, and since then, has honored more than 38,000 deserving student-athletes from numerous sports across all divisions with these elite Academic All-America® scholar-athlete honors.
