The University of Mary Washington baseball's George Rizzo, Oliver Martin, and Sean Smith all earned a spot on the Collegiate Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team, the organization announced.

Academic All-American is a title reserved for college student-athletes who perform at an elite level in their chosen sport and in the classroom. The all-time list of 44,000+ Academic All-Americans includes major sports stars and some of the world's most accomplished individuals in medicine, business, science and the arts. Established in 1952 and selected by College Sports Communicators, Academic All-America is the longest running and premier award for athletic and academic success across championship college sports at all NCAA levels, the NAIA, two-year colleges and Canadian institutions. Teams are announced year round and amplified by CSC member colleges, universities, and conferences on a wide local, regional, national, and even international scope. 

Outstanding student-athletes are nominated for Academic All-District® recognition by communications directors and must have a minimum 3.50 GPA and meet high athletic standards, and perform with excellence athletically, appearing in 90% of team contests and/or starting 66% of games.

A select group of student-athletes advances to the national ballot where CSC members vote on Academic All-America teams.
