BURNSVILLE, Minn. - The Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) has announced the 2026 NSIC Spring All-Academic Teams with Concordia-St. Paul earning 58 total recipients of the 1,034 student-athletes honored across the 16-member league.
Of the 1,034 student-athletes, 633 were named to NSIC Spring All-Academic Team of Excellence with Concordia holding 40 of those spots on the list. To be eligible for the NSIC All-Academic Team of Excellence, a student-athlete must have a 3.60 cumulative GPA or higher, while NSIC All-Academic Team members must have a 3.20 cumulative GPA or higher.
Additionally, the student-athlete must be a member of the varsity traveling team, have reached sophomore athletic and academic standing at her/his institution (true freshmen, redshirt-freshmen and ineligible athletic transfers are not eligible) and must have completed at least one full academic year at that institution.
