Louisville, KY - Manhattan softball has been named an Easton/NFCA All-America Academic Team, ranking eighth in all of Division I with a team cumulative GPA of 3.630 for the 2018-19 academic year. In addition, 14 Jaspers earned Easton/NFCA All-America Scholar-Athlete recognition, the most of any MAAC school.

Manhattan jumped up 41 spots over last season, when the team finished 49th out of 107 schools with a team GPA of 3.43. The Jaspers added five more individual academic awards this year, as well.
