North Texas is rewriting the record books in the classroom, with 221 student-athletes earning American Conference All-Academic honors — a new high since joining the conference and the third straight year surpassing 200. With a minimum 3.0 GPA and two semesters of academic work required, UNT’s consistent climb reflects a campus-wide commitment to excellence. The women’s golf team even claimed the conference’s Team Academic Excellence Award for the second year in a row, joining swimming, diving, and men’s track in that elite group. This isn’t just about sports — it’s about proving student-athletes can thrive academically and athletically, all at once.
