PLYMOUTH, N.H. – Five members of the Plymouth State University men's cross country and track & field programs were honored by College Sports Communicators for their academic excellence on Tuesday, as the CSC Academic All-District Teams were announced.
 
Graduate student Colin Moar (Annandale, Va.), juniors Brayden White (Whitefield, N.H.), Jacob Gallaher (Gambrills, Md.) and Dylan Flewelling (Oakland, Maine) and sophomore Max Goodman (South Salem, N.Y.) were all honored by the organization.
 
Academic All-District honorees are considered for advancement to the CSC Academic All-America ballot, where First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America honorees will be announced in July.
 
To be eligible for Academic All-District recognition, a student-athlete must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically and must maintain at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average. Eligible nominees are based off TFRRS performance list rankings at the time of nomination and require a top-50 performance in an event or NCAA Regional cross country race. A maximum of five qualifying student-athletes can be nominated per institution.
 
Led by former head coach John Ostler, the men's cross country team won its second-straight LEC Championship and placed a program-best seventh at the NCAA East Regional Championship. Interim head coach Alice Field piloted the indoor track & field team to a fourth place finish at the LEC Indoor Championships with 109 points, the second most in program history, while the outdoor track & field team was also fourth at LEC Outdoor Championships after scoring 81 points, also the second most in school history. Graduate student Mike Olson captured All-America honors in the 800-meters during both indoor and outdoor season, including a third place finish at NCAAs this spring.
