The 2024-25 Academic All-District® Men's and Women's Soccer Teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize 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 honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
Schupansky is also among the Academic All-District® honorees considered for advancement to the CSC Academic All-America® ballot. Student-athletes selected as CSC Academic All-America® finalists 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 Dec. 11, 2024 (women).
A Third Team CSC Division I Academic All-America selection a year ago, Schupansky posted 29 points on seven goals and an NCAA-leading 15 assists as Pitt finished the season with a 9-6-3 record in 2024.
