Although fall sports at Post University are postponed until the spring, we would like to recognize and acknowledge the hard work of our athletes last season on a scholarly level. Many of our teams collectively received among the top GPA scores in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference. Additionally, we had nine athletes on the men’s hockey team who were named as Division II-III Krampade American Hockey Coaches Association (AHCA) All-American Scholars.  Sixteen players on the women’s ice hockey team named as Krampade Division I All-American Scholars by the American Hockey Coaches Association. The U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCA) honored our men’s track and field team as an All-Academic Team.

This just shows how resilient they are and what a great group of women they are on and off the field.”

Head Coach of Men’s Track and Field Gregg Schmidt said, “I’m just proud of the achievements of the athletes both on the track and in the classroom this last semester given the rough circumstances and am looking forward for more success to come in the 2020-2021 seasons.”
