Six Vikings Named to 2022 Little East Spring All-Academic Team

SALEM, Mass. -- The Little East Conference office announced its 2022 Spring All-Academic Teams this afternoon. Salem State, which competes in men's tennis and men's lacrosse, placed six 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 2022 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.
