CoSIDA Academic All-America Program:
The CoSIDA Academic All-America Program is the marqui program of the Cllege Sports Information Directors of America. There are Academic All-America programs in the fall for men’s and women’s soccer, football and volleyball. In the winter, CoSIDA sponsors Academic All-America teams in men’s and women’s basketball. In the spring, it sponsors programs for baseball and softball, the At-Large category (which includes wrestling, swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s golf and men’s and women’s lacrosse) and the combined sports of cross country and track and field.
While a number of individual sports sponsor an honor squad/ team, CoSIDA has trademarked the term “Academic All-American” and other programs are referred as “Scholar All-America” or other.
