DAVIS, Calif. — 51 UC Davis Athletics student-athletes who compete in the conference's fall sports season were honored for their work in competition and the classroom as members of the 2025 Big West Fall Academic All-Conference Team.
The Fall Academic All-Conference Team encompasses student-athletes who compete in Men's Cross Country, Women's Cross Country, Men's Soccer, Women's Soccer, Women's Volleyball, and Men's Water Polo.
To qualify for this honor, student-athletes must meet three key requirements. First, they must maintain a minimum 3.00 cumulative institutional grade point average, with no rounding permitted. Second, they must have completed at least one full academic year at their member institution prior to the season in which the award is received, meaning they must be at least a sophomore academically. Third, they must have competed in 50 percent of their team's contests during the season. Exceptions to this participation requirement include baseball and softball pitchers, as well as cross country and track & field athletes, who can qualify by either competing in 50 percent of their team's events or by participating in the Conference Championship.
The Big West proudly recognizes these student-athletes for their commitment to achieving excellence in both competition and the classroom.
UC Davis' 51 student-athletes put them in second place for the most in the conference. The full list can be found below:
