A total of 158 women's teams earned the All-Academic distinction as a result of earning a cumulative team grade point average of 3.10 or higher. The NYU women posted an overall GPA of 3.57.

To earn individual USTFCCCA All-Academic honors, the student-athlete must have compiled a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.30 and have either competed at the NCAA Indoor or Outdoor Championships or finished the regular season ranked in the national top 35 in an individual event or ranked in the national top 25 (collective listing) in a relay event on the official NCAA POP list provided by TFRRS.org.

Cousens graduated this past spring as the NYU record-holder in four events, including the indoor 3,000m which she set this season. Guo, Spring, Sisk, and Washington combined to set the outdoor 4x400m and sprint medley relay records this season, with Spring and Sisk establishing individual records in the 500m and 800m, respectively.

"Each of these student athletes had record-breaking seasons on the track, while continuing to excel in the classroom," noted Head Coach Nick McDonough.
