The San Diego Union-Tribune All-Academic Team

The San Diego Union-Tribune and the County Office of Education are again co-sponsoring the All-Academic Team, which recognizes outstanding high school student-athletes for their grade-point averages. Thank you in advance for participating in the program.

 

Three times a year, corresponding with fall, winter and spring sports seasons, the Union-Tribune publishes the names of varsity junior and senior student-athletes with cumulative and weighted grade-point averages of 3.0 or above. Cumulative GPAs include all semesters starting with fall of freshman year. Weighted GPAs include honors classes weighted on a 5.0 scale. Certificates for each of the students are mailed to the school.

In addition, the Union-Tribune selects one Team Captain for each sport, who is awarded a plaque. From the Captains’ category, the U-T awards a trophy to the male and female Academic Athletes of the Year in June.

Only varsity juniors and seniors competing in a CIF-approved sport are eligible.

 

 

CIF All Academic Teams and Cymer Scholars.

The purpose of the All Academic Teams and Cymer Scholars is to honor students who excel not only athletically, but academically as well. The programs recognize some of the very brightest students in San Diego and Imperial Counties.

All Academic Teams honor the teams in each sport that compile the highest, combined unweighted grade point average in their region of the CIF San Diego Section. The five regions of the San Diego Section are North, South, Metropolitan San Diego, East, and Inland (Imperial County).

In each of those regions, the team in each sport with the highest team GPA is recognized as the All Academic Team.

Cymer Scholars are the junior or senior on each All Academic Team with the highest cumulative, weighted GPA.

To be considered for All Academic Team honors a team must have enough eligible athletes on its roster to compete in a sanctioned league or championship competition.

Each member of every All Academic Team receives a personalized certificate from the CIF San Diego Section. And each Cymer Scholar receives an additional certificate from Cymer and the CIF.
