The SDA Boys Soccer team was recognized by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) with the 2014-­15 High School Team Academic Award.

The NSCAA annually recognizes high school soccer programs that have excelled in the classroom, in addition to their performance on the field.

The SDA Boys soccer team was one of 398 teams (150 boys, 248 girls) nationwide recognized for exemplary performance in the classroom as a team during the 2014-­‐15 academic year. Among these programs are 51 schools receiving honors for both their boys’ andgirls’teams.

To qualify for this award, the team must have a minimum grade point average of 3.25 for the entire academic year. The team GPA is determined by adding every player’s GPA, then dividing by the number of players.

Congratulations to the team on this accomplishment!
