To be eligible for the Academic Team award, institutions needed to maintain a 3.1 GPA or better on a 4.0 scale, as the Ephs maintained a sensational 3.71 team GPA. In order to achieve the individual honor, student-athletes were required to maintain a 3.3 GPA or better on a 4.0 scale, while also meeting one of the following athletic criteria:
1. They must have finished the season among the top-50 individuals as listed on the descending order lists on the Track & Field Results Reporting Service (TFRRS) platform. In addition, any student-athletes not among the top 50, but who participated at the Indoor or Outdoor National Championships, are eligible.
2. They must have competed as a member of one of the top-35 relay teams as listed on the descending order list on TFRRS. In addition, any student-athletes not among the top-35 relay teams, but who participated in the relay at the Indoor or Outdoor National Championships, are eligible. Finally, any competing relay team member on an expanded descending order list to include 35 institutions (1 relay team per institution) is eligible.
"We are all proud of the team this past year for its achievements in the classroom, on the track and in the field," said head coach
Nate Hoey. "We are proud of the way the team consistently shows up for each other, supports and lifts each other up."
During the 2025 NCAA Division III Outdoor Championship on May 22-24 in Geneva, Ohio, Williams totaled six All-American performances. Jensen, Donaldson, Paluska and King-Harvey earned First Team status in the 4x400-meter relay, while Peng (3,000 steeplechase), King-Harvey (400 dash), Fitzgerald (pole vault), Yu (pole vault) and Mazerolle (heptathlon) were named to the Second Team. The Ephs won the 2025 NESCAC Championship on April 26 at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, as Williams has won 27-of-40 conference titles dating back to 1984.
