Men's track and field collects 20th USTFCCCA Team Academic Award in a row

Record-tying eight Oles named USTFCCCA All-Academic Athletes

NEW ORLEANS, La. – The St. Olaf College men's track and field team earned U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) All-Academic Team honors for the 20th year in a row, while eight Oles were named USTFCCCA All-Academic Athletes, as announced on Monday.

Head coach Antone Truss' team collected a 20th team accolade in a row after compiling a team cumulative grade-point average of 3.55 at the end of the 2025-26 academic year. The 3.55 GPA is the team's second-highest mark during its run of consecutive All-Academic Team awards, just .01 shy of last year's mark of 3.56. To be eligible, teams had to record at least a 3.10 cumulative GPA of all student-athletes who used a year of eligibility.

Individually, rising senior Max Albertson, rising junior Jackson Bullock, rising senior Christian Fells, rising sophomore Aidan McKeever, Cullen Moore '26, rising sophomore Paxon Myers, Lance Nemecek '26, and Kevin Turlington '26 gave St. Olaf a program-record-tying eight All-Academic Athletes. Turlington was honored for the third time, while Albertson and Moore were for the second. To be eligible, student-athletes must have a cumulative GPA of 3.30 and finish in the top 50 nationally in an event – or be on a top-35 relay – or have competed in the indoor or outdoor national meet.
