50 Comets Make League’s All-Academic Teams

Fifty UT Dallas student-athletes were honored by the American Southwest Conference when it recently released its Academic All-ASC Teams for the league’s fall sports.

The Comets were well-represented in each of the five fall sports. Women’s cross country (13) and volleyball (9) collected more honorees than any other school in the conference. The remaining three fall sports — men’s cross country (6), men’s soccer (10) and women’s soccer (12) — ranked second among conference schools in their respective sports.

More than 350 student-athletes from the ASC’s 12 member institutions were recognized by the American Southwest Conference. To be eligible for ASC All-Academic honors, student-athletes must be classified academically as a sophomore, junior, senior or graduate student during the competition season and have been in attendance and completed at least one academic year (two consecutive semesters) at their institution. They must also have a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average as certified at the conclusion of the academic semester in which the ASC sport championship is held.

Below is a complete list of UT Dallas’ Academic All-ASC selections for the 2014 fall semester.
