NDSU softball outfielder Emilee Buringa has been voted to the CoSIDA Academic All-District Team, the College Sports Information Directors of America announced May 12.
Buringa, who started every game in centerfield for NDSU, earns her first CoSIDA academic honor. The St. Charles, Minnesota, native also was a Summit League Second Team All-League selection. In the classroom, Buringa holds a 4.00 GPA in education.
First-team Academic All-District honorees advance to the CoSIDA Academic All-America ballot. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America honorees will be announced in June.
To be eligible for Academic All-America consideration, a student-athlete must be a starter or key reserve, maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.30 on a scale of 4.00, have reached sophomore athletic and academic standings at his current institution, and be nominated by his sports information director.
As a student-focused, land-grant, research university, we serve our citizens.
