ALISO VIEJO, Calif. – Chico State Athletics set the academic standard across the CCAA in 2025-26, leading all conference institutions with a school-record 138 All-Academic selections.
 
The Wildcats' 138 selections were the most among the CCAA's 12 institutions, ahead of Cal Poly Pomona with 133 and Cal State San Marcos with 132. Chico State also recorded the conference's largest year-over-year increase, adding 66 honorees after placing 72 student-athletes on the team in 2024-25.
 
All 13 of Chico State's CCAA-sponsored programs were represented.
 
"This recognition reflects the tremendous commitment our student-athletes make to pursuing excellence in every aspect of their Chico State experience," said Executive Director of Athletics Eric Coleman. "Leading the CCAA in All-Academic selections is an achievement our entire department can take pride in, but it also speaks to something larger than a number. Athletics plays an important role in the educational mission of the University by helping student-athletes develop the discipline, resilience and leadership skills that will serve them throughout their lives. We are grateful to our coaches, faculty, academic advisors and staff for the support they provide our Wildcats each day."
 
Chico State's record-setting total contributed to a historic year across the conference. A CCAA-record 1,209 student-athletes earned All-Academic recognition, marking the first time the conference surpassed 1,200 honorees. The total eclipsed the previous record of 1,171 established in 2020-21 and exceeded last year's total of 1,150 by 59.
 
"Congratulations to the 1,209 student-athletes who earned a place on the 2025-26 CCAA All-Academic Team," said CCAA Commissioner Allen Hardison. "Surpassing 1,200 honorees and establishing a new all-time conference record is an extraordinary accomplishment. It reflects the tremendous dedication our student-athletes bring to their academic responsibilities while also training, competing and serving as leaders within their campus communities.
 
"I also want to thank the faculty, coaches, academic advisors and administrators throughout the conference who support our student-athletes and help make achievements such as this possible."
 
To qualify for the CCAA All-Academic Award, an undergraduate student-athlete must have earned a varsity letter in one of the conference's 13 sponsored sports while posting a grade-point average of at least 3.40 in a minimum of 24 semester units completed at the certifying institution during the academic year. Graduate students are not eligible for the award.
 
The CCAA began presenting its annual All-Academic Awards in 2005-06.
The CCAA and NCAA Division II support the educational mission of college athletics by fostering a balanced and inclusive approach in which student-athletes learn and develop through their desired academic pursuits, civic engagement within their communities and athletics competition, creating a life in the balance.
 
The award demonstrates the academic achievements of student-athletes throughout the CCAA's member institutions. It illustrates one of the many ways student-athletes take advantage of the unique opportunity Division II provides to compete in the classroom, on the field, in their careers, for their causes and on their terms.
