D3 WEEK Day 2:  TEAM PEAK PERFORMERS EXEMPLIFY TRUE MEANING OF STUDENT-ATHLETE

On the second day of NCAA Division III Week, the AMCC is proud to announce the 18 winners of the Team Peak Performer award.  The 2016-17 recipients stand tall among their peers as holders of the highest cumulative team GPA, effective with the close of the Fall 2016 semester, in each championship and showcase sport sponsored by the conference.
