LEXINGTON, Kentucky -- The University of Michigan-Dearborn volleyball team was awarded its fourth consecutive AVCA Team Academic Award, the association announced on Wednesday (July 17). This marks the sixth time the Wolverines have received the award, dating back to 2016.

"We are pleased that the record-setting success of the 2023-24 season on the court has extended to the classroom, too, as evidenced by more programs earning the AVCA Team Academic Award than ever before," says AVCA CEO Dr. Jaime Gordon. "This is a great example of how committed our coaches are when it comes to helping their players reach their full potential as both students and athletes." 

More than 1,400 collegiate and high school volleyball programs maintained a year-long grade-point average of 3.3 on a 4.0 scale to earn the award for their classroom excellence during the recently completed academic year.
