EVANSVILLE, Ind. – For the second time in three years, the University of Evansville volleyball team has earned AVCA Team Academic Award recognition.
“In our program, we are constantly talking about the fact that we are student-athletes, in that order. We can’t have any success on the court if we are not first succeeding in the classroom, where those learnings will carry us through life, long after we take off our volleyball shoes for the final time,” Purple Aces head volleyball coach Zach Weinberg said. “Getting honored with the AVCA Team Academic Award is a rightful reward for these Aces and, for the dedication they continue to show in the classroom. The coaching staff is incredibly proud of their academic efforts!”
Volleyball programs from across the country continue to prove their dominance off the court as a record-breaking 1,450 collegiate and high school volleyball teams maintained a year-long grade-point average of at least 3.3 on a 4.0 scale (or 4.1 on a 5.0 scale), to earn the 2025 AVCA Team Academic Award.
This marks the 15th time the Purple Aces have won the award since 2000.
