Five Vikings Named to 2021 Little East Spring All-Academic Team

Salem, Mass. -- The Little East Conference office announced its 2021 Spring All-Academic Teams this afternoon. Salem State, which competes in men's tennis and men's lacrosse, placed five of its athletes on the All-Academic Team. 

A student-athlete must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.3 or higher through the 2021 spring semester and be at least a sophomore academically and athletically. The student-athlete must also be a full-time member of a varsity sport and be enrolled in its institution for a full academic year.  

The Little East Conference began honoring an all-academic team during the 2007-08 academic year. 

Formed in 1986, the Little East serves as New England's premier athletic conference for public institutions in NCAA Division III.
