KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Jayce McCain, Blake Seits and Lyle Sutton of the Cal State San Marcos men’s basketball team were named to the 2021-22 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Honors Court while the Cougars also earned the NABC Team Academic Excellence Award, the organization announced on Tuesday.
The NABC Team Academic Excellence Awards recognize men’s basketball programs that completed the 2021-22 academic year with a team GPA of 3.0 or higher. The NABC Honors Court, meanwhile, includes junior, senior and graduate student men’s basketball players who finished the 2021-22 year with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher.
This is CSUSM’s first time earning the Team Academic Excellence Award and having Cougars on the Honors Court.
No stranger to academic honors, McCain, Seits and Sutton each earned a spot on the CCAA Winter Academic Honor Roll earlier this month with a GPA of 3.3 or higher.
Over 2,000 players earned spots on the NABC Honors Court and over 300 programs received NABC Team Academic Excellence Awards for 2021-22.
