The 2025 Academic All-District Women’s Track & Field teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances on the track, in the field, and in the classroom.

The Owls’ 2025 postseason is powered by Demand the Limits Injury Attorneys.

Florida Atlantic volleyball is coming off one of its most successful seasons.
 
With 15+ wins for the second consecutive year and 18+ wins for the 11th time in program history, the Owls’ incredible fall campaign culminated in their first American Athletic Conference (AAC) Tournament appearance, and ultimately, their first championship berth since 2005.
 
It also marked one of the most successful seasons for the team under Head Coach Fernanda Nelson, who has been with the program since 2012.
 
“What I enjoyed the most about this season was the process,” Nelson said. “I felt that this was a team that was able to get better every single day. It didn’t matter if we were winning or losing, they really bought into the process of getting better and peaking at the right time.”
 
After securing a pair of league sweeps over Charlotte and Memphis to open conference play, the Owls had a remarkable two-game stretch, knocking off the AAC’s top two teams in Rice, 3-0, and South Florida, 3-1. These wins sparked a 6-4 finish to the regular season, as the Owls also earned a sweep over Temple, three four-set wins over Charlotte and North Texas, and capped off the season with a Senior Day win over Tulane.
 
With a successful regular season under their belts, the Owls then set their sights on postseason play. They headed into the American Athletic Conference Tournament – the team’s first league tournament since 2019 – as the No. 6 seed.
 
The Owls squared off against No. 3-seed East Carolina in the quarterfinals, earning a five-set win over the Pirates to advance to the semifinals against No. 2-seed Rice. Florida Atlantic rallied in the semifinal matchup to reverse sweep the Rice Owls, punching its ticket to the AAC Championship finals. The Owls finished the season as the No. 2 team in the conference.
 
This impressive 2024 campaign resulted in multiple conference honors. Victoria Hensley and Katelynn Robine were named to the AAC All-Conference Second Team, and Robine and Valeria Rosado were named AAC Championship All-Tournament Team selections. Robine and Rosado eclipsed 1,000 career kills, and Hensley tallied her 3,000^th career assist. Rosado was also recognized prior to the start of the season as one of just five unanimous AAC Preseason All-Conference honorees.
 
Nelson attributes much of the team’s success to its strong culture.
 
“The culture made a big difference for our team this year, one of the best we have ever had,” Nelson said. “They really enjoyed being around each other, they were fun to coach, and they brought in a lot of passion. We were truly a family. That was the goal we had from the beginning of the season. The Florida Atlantic volleyball family we created in 2024 will always be remembered.”
 

Josh Matheny of Upper St. Clair is preparing for another summer to remember.

One year after traveling to Paris to compete in the 2024 Summer Olympics, Matheny is bound for Southeast Asia.

Currently, he is attending training camp in Thailand before he heads to Singapore to compete in the World Aquatics Championships. He is one of over 2,500 athletes participating in the event, running from July 11 through Aug. 3, and including several disciplines of swimming, water polo, diving, artistic swimming and open water competition.

Metered swimming races take place July 26-Aug. 3. After qualifying heats, the 100 breaststroke finals will take place at 7 A.M. (Eastern Time) on July 28 and the 200 breast finals will be held Aug. 1. Matheny is entered in both events.

“As far as expectations, I am just looking to perform the best I can,” Matheny enthused. “Hopefully win some medals for the US.”

Matheny qualified for his third World Championships during the Toyota National Championships held June 3-7 at the Indiana University Natatorium in Indianapolis,

Matheny won the 200 in 2:08.87, edging out AJ Pouch, who grabbed second in 2:09.71. He secured second place in the 100.

“I am excited to represent the USA for the third year in a row,” said Matheny. “It’s always an honor to have the flag on my cap.”

Matheny was most pleased with his 200 performance. He stuck to his winning formula. He took the lead early and stayed there.

“I like to swim from ahead,” he said. “At the turn at 150, I wanted to be first and whatever happens in the last 50 happens.”

Matheny expects his experience from last year’s Olympics in Paris will help him in Singapore. Matheny finished seventh in the 200 breast with a time of 2:09.52. Léon Marchand of France won the gold with a time of 2:05.85, an Olympic record.

“I learned that you always have to stay confident and true to the way you like to swim because it’s usually the best for you,” he said.

Throughout his scholastic career at Upper St. Clair, Matheny has always been the best.

He won four WPIAL titles in the 100-yard breast and led the Panthers to a WPIAL team championship. At the PIAA meet his senior year, Matheny won three gold medals, including the 100-yard breaststroke title for the fourth year in a row with a NFHS and state record time of 51.84 seconds. He was named Swimmer of the Meet as well as 2021 Almanac/Observer-Reporter Male Athlete of the Year.

During his club swimming years, Matheny became the U.S. national champion in the 200-meter breaststroke, shattering the 15-16 age group record. After that first big win on a national stage, he went on to compete in the World Junior Championships in Budapest, Hungary. He won gold medals in the 100- and 200-meter breaststroke events and added a silver in the 4×100 medley relay.

For the past four years, Matheny has competed at Indiana University. As a Hoosiers, he has claimed multiple All-America honors. He has also accumulated a plethora of medals, including gold, during the Big Ten championships as well as the NCAA finals.

BOSTON – The University of New Hampshire recorded a 3.50 GPA to finish among the top three schools in the 2024-25 Walter Harrison Academic Cup as announced Wednesday by America East.

 

This is the fifth consecutive year UNH finished with a mark of 3.40 or higher in the Academic Cup. The Wildcats had a 3.46 GPA in 2023-24, a 3.44 GPA in 2022-23, captured the Cup in 2021-22 with a 3.42, and recorded a 3.47 in 2020-21.

 

Women’s cross country recorded UNH’s highest team GPA with a 3.74, which ranked third best in the conference. Volleyball also ranked in the top 10 overall in the conference at No. 10 with a 3.71 GPA.

 

UNH also boasted two sport GPA champions — women’s track & field with a 3.69 team GPA and men’s track & field at 3.48 — as nine of UNH’s 12 teams recorded a 3.45 or higher GPA. The others were men’s cross country (3.60), swimming and diving (3.55), field hockey (3.52), lacrosse (3.49) and women’s soccer (3.45)

 

 

New Hampshire placed third in the Walter Harrison Academic Cup for the second consecutive year. The University of Vermont won the award with a 3.54 and was followed by University of Maine (3.51), UNH, UAlbany (3.49) and Bryant University (3.44).
