NEW ORLEANS — The Saint Mary's men's and women's track teams were once again honored as All-Academic Teams by the US Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association in the organization' annual academic awards release Thursday.
The Saint Mary's women led the way with a 3.50 cumulative Grade Point Average. That ranked tied for 47th-best among the 220 women's teams that received All-Academic Team accolades (minimum 3.00 team cumulative GPA). The men posted a 3.21 GPA, ranking them among the top-65 teams out of the 141 men's programs that earned the honor.
Now-graduated senior Noah McDermott was the top student-athlete for the Gaels both in the classroom and on the track this past spring.
