Baseball Earns Sixth Straight ABCA Academic Excellence Award

Brewers recognized for excellent work in the classroom

POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. - For the sixth season in a row, the Vassar baseball team has earned the Team Academic Excellence Award as announced by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) and presented by Sports Attack. The award honors high school and college programs coached by ABCA members that post a cumulative Grade Point Average over 3.0 on a 4.0 scale for the current academic year.
 
The ABCA recognized nearly 700 member college and high school programs from across the country with the 2021-22 ABCA Team Academic Excellence Award. Over 250 high school programs and more than 420 collegiate programs were recognized with this year's award, and Vassar was one of 154 Division III programs recognized. In the spring, the Brewers also had league-high 18 student-athletes named to the Liberty League All-Academic Team.
 
The American Baseball Coaches Association has a long tradition of recognizing the achievements of baseball coaches and student-athletes. The ABCA/Rawlings All-America Teams are the nation's oldest, founded in 1949, and the ABCA's awards program also includes the ABCA/Rawlings All-Region Awards, the ABCA/Diamond Regional & National Coaches of the Year and several other major awards such as the ABCA Hall of Fame and the Dave Keilitz Ethics in Coaching Award.
