MC Earns NJCAA Academic Recognition for 21 Student-Athletes, 4 TeamsJuly 29, 2025
 Midland College is proud to announce that four of its athletic teams and 21 student-athletes
have been named to the 2024–2025 NJCAA All-Academic Teams. This achievement further
solidifies Midland College’s role as a leader in student-centered education and its
ongoing mission to provide opportunities for excellence in the classroom, in competition,
and throughout the college experience.
MC’s Volleyball, Softball, Golf and Baseball teams all earned spots as NJCAA Academic Teams of the Year, with cumulative team
GPAs of 3.33, 3.10, 3.09, and 3.05 respectively. Additionally, five individual student-athletes
achieved NJCAA First Team honors for maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA, with several others
earning Second and Third Team recognition.
“Credit must go to the instructional and the academic support staff and our student-athletes
who consistently demonstrate excellence in myriad ways at Midland College,” said MC
Athletic Director Forrest Allen. “From the professors to the academic advisors, to
the coaching staff and finally the students themselves; there is a concerted effort
to display the full range of what it means to be a member of the Midland College family.
I could not be prouder of the 21 NJCAA All-Academic Team honorees, as well as those
who narrowly missed out on earning All-Academic recognition. Additionally, to have
4 of our 6 athletic programs on the 2025 NJCAA All-Academic Teams of the Year list,
is something of which we can all be proud.”
The NJCAA All-Academic honors are awarded annually to student-athletes across the
country who maintain a GPA of 3.60 or higher. Midland College’s honorees represent
the highest standard of academic and athletic dedication.
“We take great pride in celebrating the academic achievements of our student-athletes,”
said MC President Dr. Damon Kennedy. “This recognition reflects Midland College’s
strong belief that athletic talent and academic achievement go hand in hand. While
our student-athletes compete at a high level, we emphasize that their time here is
equally about gaining the knowledge and skills that will carry them long after the
final whistle.”
