PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Brown juniors Phil Goss (San Francisco, Calif.) and Coley Sullivan (Louisville, Ky.) and seniors Amy Tarczynski (Oakland, Calif.) and Zoe Verni (Mamaroneck, N.Y.) were named to their respective 2018-19 CoSIDA Academic All-District At-Large Teams on Thursday as voted on by the College Sports Information Directors of America.
The Academic All-District Teams recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances athletically and in the classroom, as only student-athletes who maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.30 and are significant contributors to their team's success are eligible for nomination.
All four Brown student-athletes will advance to the Google Cloud Academic All-America® ballot, with first- and second-team Academic All-America® honorees to be announced on June 21.
