18 AMCC basketball student-athletes were recognized for their success in the classroom on Tuesday afternoon, when the College Sports Communicators released their 2024-25 NCAA Division III Academic All-District teams.

To be eligible for a spot on an Academic All-District team, student-athletes must meet certain academic and athletic requirements. Academically, student-athletes must be at least sophomores while holding cumulative grade-point averages of 3.5 or higher. Athletically, players must be starters or key reserves who have played in at least 90 percent of their team's games, or started two thirds of the games. Nominators could submit up to four qualified student-athletes per team.
