The Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) is proud to recognize its baseball student-athletes named to the 2026 CSC Academic All-District® Team, as announced by College Sports Communicators (CSC).
The 2026 Academic All-District® Baseball Teams honor the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes baseball honorees across four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III, and NAIA.
MIAA student-athletes earning Academic All-District® distinction demonstrated exceptional dedication to academic achievement while making significant contributions to their programs throughout the 2026 season. Academic All-District® honorees were considered for advancement to the CSC Academic All-America® ballot. Student-athletes selected as CSC Academic All-America® finalists are denoted with an asterisk and will advance to the national ballot to be voted on by CSC members. First-, second-, and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced June 23.
All eight MIAA institutions that sponsor baseball were represented among this year’s Academic All-District® selections, showcasing the conference’s commitment to excellence both on the diamond and in the classroom. Albion College, Kalamazoo College, and The University of Olivet each had a student-athlete selected as a CSC Academic All-America® finalist, with Brendan Schultz, Robert Newland, and Bryan Carney advancing to the national ballot.
The MIAA congratulates each honoree for exemplifying the conference’s tradition of academic and athletic excellence. Additional information on the CSC Academic All-District® and Academic All-America® programs is available at AcademicAllAmerica.com.
