A total of 169 Chestnut Hill College student-athletes were honored by being placed on the CACC Academic Honor Roll, with three levels of academic achievement highlighted. The initiative was constructed by members of the CACC's Faculty Athletics Representatives (FAR) group and approved by the league's Presidents' Council. 28 student-athletes earned the FAR Award of Distinction, 92 were placed on the Commissioners' Level, and 49 were placed on the Presidents' Level. The 169 athletes honored make up 68% of all eligible CACC athletes at the institution, with 10 honorees competing in more than one sport. Baseball placed 37 athletes, men's lacrosse 21, women's soccer 19, men's tennis all 11 members, and women's basketball 11 of 12 on the honor roll. The CACC and its member schools are committed to ensuring student-athletes excel in the classroom, with over 2,000 student-athletes from 12 institutions named to the CACC Academic Honor Roll. This new initiative will be announced twice a year during the academic calendar and will recognize student-athletes at each of the conference's member schools who earn a GPA of 3.0 or better during the fall and spring semesters.
