Recently, the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) announced their annual Team Academic Excellence Award for 2022-23. The St. Thomas Aquinas College Baseball team was selected for this distinguished honor as a result of their outstanding work on both the court and in the classroom this past academic year. STAC posted a team GPA of 3.05 under fourth year Head Coach Jon Garvey.

The American Baseball Coaches Association's Team Academic Excellence Award honors high school and college programs coached by ABCA members that post a cumulative Grade Point Average over 3.0 on a 4.0 scale.

Criteria for the ABCA Team Academic Excellence Award include:

• Must be a high school or college team
• Head coach must be a current ABCA member
• Team must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale during the 2022-23 academic year. GPA may not be rounded up.
