GREENSBORO, NC — For the second consecutive year, the McMurry University baseball team has been honored with the 2025-26 ABCA Team Academic Excellence Award, presented by Sports Attack.
The American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) proudly recognized more than 800 member high school and college programs nationwide for their outstanding academic performance. By maintaining a cumulative team GPA of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale during the 2025-26 academic year, the War Hawks have proven that their dedication to excellence extends far beyond the diamond.
McMurry is proud to be part of an elite group of nearly 500 college programs and more than 320 high school programs from across the country to earn this accolade this year.
Following the conclusion of the spring semester, coaches were invited to nominate their teams for the award before the July 17 deadline. To qualify, a program was required to meet the following criteria:
- Be a high school or college baseball program
- Have a head coach who is a current ABCA member
- Post a minimum cumulative team GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale for the 2025-26 academic year
The American Baseball Coaches Association has a long tradition of recognizing the achievements of baseball coaches and student-athletes. The ABCA/Rawlings All-America Teams are the nation's oldest, founded in 1949, and the ABCA's awards program also includes the ABCA/Rawlings All-Region Awards, the ABCA/ATEC Regional & National Coaches of the Year and several other major awards such as the ABCA Hall of Fame and the Dave Keilitz Ethics in Coaching Award.
