Atlanta, Ga. - On Wednesday, the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) announced their annual Academic Honor Rolls for 2023-24. The St. Thomas Aquinas College Women's Basketball team was selected for this distinguished honor as a result of their outstanding work on both the court and in the classroom this past academic year. STAC posted a team GPA of 3.719 under third year Head Coach Bill Cleary, which ranks 15th among all Division II squads.

The WBCA Academic Top 25 recognizes NCAA Division I, II and III, NAIA and two-year college women’s basketball teams across the nation that carry the highest combined GPAs inclusive of all student-athletes on their rosters for the entire season. The 2023-24 season is the 29th in which the WBCA has compiled the honor rolls. Teams having a 3.0 combined GPA and qualifying for consideration in their respective divisions are also listed as special mentions.

“The WBCA is pleased to recognize those women’s basketball programs that have committed themselves to excellence on the court and in the classroom,” said WBCA Executive Director Danielle Donehew. “The teams we honor this year strive to achieve all-around success and we commend their efforts. Congratulations!”

STAC finished the 2023-2024 season with an overall record of 18-12 (11-5 ECC), advancing to the semifinal round of the ECC Tournament. The Spartans will return six players, from the 23-24 squad. 

Congratulations to all of our Spartan Women's Basketball Student-Athletes on a job well done.
