17 Skyhawk athletic programs represented
Division II ADA Announces 2019-20 Academic Achievement Recipients
EASTON, Mass. (September 2, 2020)– A Northeast-10 Conference high of 208 Stonehill College student-athletes have been recognized with Academic Achievement Awards from the Division II Athletic Director's Association (ADA), as announced last week.
To earn recognition, student-athletes from Division II ADA member institutions must have a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 or higher, completed at least four semesters and have been an active member of their team during the previous academic year.
The NE10 was third out of Division II conferences with 1,064 honorees, while the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) led the way with 1,365 honorees and the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) had 1,220 selections. Out of the 10 NE10 institutions that had student-athletes receive awards, Stonehill was top on the list with 208, while Bentley University was second with 148 honorees, and Adelphi University rounded out the top three with 118 selections.
The 208 Skyhawks represented 17 athletic programs. The football team was represented with a high of 36 student-athletes, while women's track & field followed with 23 honorees. Men's ice hockey and men's track & field each saw 17 make the list, as women's soccer rounded out the top five teams with 16 selections.
Headlining the list for Stonehill includes senior Derek Ivey of the football team who was the Skyhawks' lone College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America® first team recipient this year, he as earlier named one of 13 Skyhawks who received Academic All-District honorees. Will Moreton '20 of men's basketball, Emily Rosano '20 of women's soccer, Matthew Schoen '20 of ice hockey, junior Aidan Wilde of baseball, senior Ethan Famiano and junior Nickolas McNamee of men's track & field, and Jordan Callahan '20, Ashley Colarusso '20, Alyssa Freeman '20, and Anna Lastra '20 each received Academic All-District honors this year.
Stonehill also saw three Skyhawks earn NE10 Sport Excellence Awards including Schoen, senior Sam Curtin of women's cross country and track & field, and Annelise Howick '20 of women's tennis.
With 23 intercollegiate sports after announcing the addition of women's swimming for the 2020-21 academic year and women's ice hockey for 2021-22, Stonehill boasts one of the top athletic and academic programs in the country. Stonehill has won the Northeast-10 Conference Presidents' Cup six times, all coming within the last 15 years after earning the award for the winter athletics season in 2019-20. The Skyhawks have received the NCAA Division II Presidents' Award for Academic Achievement each of the first nine years of the program's existence of honoring institutions with an Academic Success Rate (ASR) of 90-percent or better. Stonehill has earned a 95% Academic Success Ranking (ASR) by the NCAA, which considers the academic success rate of the institution based on the graduation rate of student-athletes, good for tenth among all NCAA Division II institutions, with nine Skyhawk teams receiving a perfect rating of 100%.
