LEXINGTON, Ky. – For the 11th consecutive year, the Wichita State volleyball team has earned the United States Marine Corps and the American Volleyball Coaches Association (USMC/AVCA) Team Academic Award.

Wichita State completed a strong academic year in 2022-23 with a 3.43 team GPA in the fall and a 3.56 mark in the spring, good for a cumulative GPA of 3.50.

"The commitment our coaches make to help their student-athletes pursue the best versions of themselves is evident in the academic accomplishments highlighted today." said AVCA CEO Jaime Gordon said. "Achievement on the court has always been closely tied to success in the classroom which is reflected by the number of championship programs honored."

The USMC/AVCA award initiated in the 1992-93 academic year, honoring volleyball teams that maintain a year-long grade-point average of 3.3 on a 4.0 scale or a 4.1 on a 5.0 scale. A record 1,332 high school and collegiate teams earned the Team Academic Award this season.
