Stanislaus State student-athletes continue to excel in both the classroom and their respective sports. In addition to the University placing all fall semester team sports in postseason play for the first time as a member of the California Collegiate Athletic Association, 29 Warriors were named to all-academic teams.

Stanislaus ranked behind only Cal State San Marcos among the 13 CCAA member schools in the number of individuals it placed on the all-academic team. San Marcos, the newest CCAA member, had 35. In all, the conference recognized 287 student-athletes in volleyball, men's and women’s cross country and men’s and women’s soccer. Women’s soccer led all Stanislaus programs by placing 11 players on the list.

To be named to the CCAA all-academic team, the student-athletes must have competed in a conference-sponsored sport as a sophomore or higher in athletic standing, and have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.3. A list of the Warriors honored by the CCAA can be found here.
