GREENVILLE, N.C. --- Over 300 East Carolina University student-athletes were named to the American Athletic Conference All-Academic Team announced Commissioner Mike Aresco on Thursday.

Nominations for the All-Academic Team are submitted by each of the American Athletic Conference's member institutions. To be eligible for the honor, a nominee must have competed in an American Athletic Conference-sponsored sport, attained a minimum grade-point average of 3.00 for the preceding academic year, and completed a minimum of two consecutive semesters or three consecutive quarters of academic work, with a total of 18 semester or 27 quarter credits, not including remedial courses.
The nominations are reviewed and approved by the American Athletic Conference Academic Affairs Committee. The total of 3,299 honorees shatters the previous conference record of 2,836 selections from last season. Cincinnati led the league with 355 selections while ECU was second with 303 honorees.
