Sixteen regional winners of the NCAA Division II Conference Commissioners Association Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award have been announced.
A male and female Division II Scholar-Athlete of the Year will be selected from the 16 regional winners.
The award, sponsored by the Division II Conference Commissioners Association, highlights the extraordinary achievements of Division II student-athletes. Butch Raymond, commissioner of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference and president of the DII CCA, said the award showcases the academic and athletic talent at the Division II level.
“The CCA Scholar-Athlete Awards exemplify the balance between academics and athletics that is the cornerstone of Division II,” Raymond said.
The commissioners from each Division II region selected the regional winners. To be nominated for consideration, a student-athlete must have attained a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average and demonstrated outstanding athletic credentials.
National award winners will be announced later this month.
