Every year the National Junior College Athletic Association(NJCAA) compiles the list of the top academic team at each school and in each sport. Any player or team that has over a 3.00 GPA is recognized on the list. It is impressive to be able to maintain a high GPA and play a sport in college but it is even more impressive when the entire team’s cumulative GPA is over 3.0.
