The United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) announced their annual Track & Field All-Academic teams for 2021. The St. Thomas Aquinas College Women's Track & Field team were named recipients of this distinguished honor as a result of their outstanding work on both the track and in the classroom. The Lady Spartans posted a 3.56 team GPA for 2020-2021.

In order to qualify for All-Academic distinction, a team must meet the following criteria:

• The cumulative GPA (not 2020-21 academic year, not semester) for all student-athletes on the institution’s NCAA Squad List for Indoor and/or Outdoor Track and Field must be 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale, certifiable by the institution’s registrar. Institutions utilizing a different GPA scale must convert the GPA to a 4.0 scale using the standard conversion method [GPA/Scale x 4.0].
• Transfer students and/or graduate students are to include only grades earned at the current nominating institution.
• The cumulative GPA of all student-athletes on the institution’s NCAA Squad List for Indoor and/or Outdoor Track and Field must be computed by the following method:

1. Total the cumulative number of semester hours or quarter hours earned for all student-athletes on the NCAA Squad List including the most recent grading period;
2. Total the cumulative number of quality points (GPA multiplied by the number of credit hours) earned by all student-athletes including the most recent grading period;
3. Divide the cumulative number of quality points earned by the cumulative number of semester or quarter hours earned.
