CASTINE, Maine – The Maine Maritime Academy women's volleyball team has been honored with the 2025 American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic Award, sponsored by INTENT.
The award recognizes volleyball programs that maintain at least a 3.30 cumulative team GPA during the academic year. Maine Maritime is among a record number of collegiate and high school teams nationwide to receive the honor for the 2024–25 academic year.
"It is very exciting to see that the record-setting, on-court successes during the 2024–25 season have extended to the classroom," said AVCA CEO Jaime Gordon. "The fact that more programs earned the Team Academic Award than ever before is evidence of how committed our coaches are when it comes to helping their players reach their goals as both students and athletes."
The AVCA Team Academic Award was established in 1992 to recognize teams that excel academically. More than 1,400 teams earned the honor this year, the highest total in the award's history.
