– Twenty-two University of Hawai'i student-athletes earned Academic All-Big West honors for the fall sports during the 2022 season. The sports included for UH are women's cross country, women's soccer, and women's volleyball.
The soccer team had the most honorees (12) followed by women's volleyball (7) and women's cross country (3).
A total of 409 student-athletes were honored among the 12 member institutions. UH soccer's
Kylie McNamara was one of nine student-athletes, who earned a perfect 4.0 cumulative grade point average.
To be eligible for the All-Academic team, student-athletes have to maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average, complete one full year at the member institution prior to the season for which the award is being received (at least a sophomore academically) and competed in at least 50 percent of their team's contests.
The Big West recognizes individuals academically per season – fall, winter, and spring – for all conference-sponsored sports. The Winter Academic All-Conference Team will honor men's and women's basketball student-athletes, with the Spring Academic All-Conference Team consisting of student-athletes from men's and women's golf, men's and women's track and field, women's water polo, men's and women's tennis, men's volleyball, beach volleyball, softball and baseball.
