The 2023 Academic All-District® At-Large Teams, selected by College Sports
Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.  The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes men's at-large honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
 
In order to be eligible for all-district accolades, the honorees need to be sophomores or above with a 3.5 or greater grade-point average (GPA) and be a significant contributor to the team.
