The OLLU volleyball team has won the prestigious American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic Award for the second consecutive season.
The award, initiated in the 1992–1993 academic year, is a significant honor that recognizes volleyball teams that maintain a year-long grade-point average of 3.3 on a 4.0 scale or 4.1 on a 5.0 scale. The Saints received the award for the first time in program history in 2022-2023, and their continued success in the classroom and on the court is a testament to their dedication and hard work.
The 2023 Saints have set a new standard of academic excellence, marking a remarkable 3.46 GPA. This outstanding achievement is a testament to their hard work and dedication both on and off the court.
The volleyball team also made the Team Academic Honor Roll, which recognizes programs in the top 20% of GPAs in the NAIA.
