AUSTIN, Texas — University of Chicago junior jumper Aryan Shrivastava concluded a standout career for the University of Chicago men’s track and field team by earning 2nd-Team CSC Academic All-American honors, as announced by College Sports Communicators on Wednesday morning.
The Irvine, California native earned First Team All-America recognition in the Triple Jump at the 2025 NCAA Outdoor Championships where he brought home a 7th-place finish with a mark of 15.03 meters, the third-best performance in school history in his first-ever appearance in the NCAA Championships.
In 2025 alone, Shrivastava claimed three University Athletic Association titles across the indoor and outdoor seasons, sweeping both the Indoor and Outdoor Triple Jump titles with marks of 14.33 meters and 14.12 meters, respectively. He also brought home the Indoor High Jump championship with a mark of 2.04 meters and added a 3rd-place finish in the Outdoor High Jump (1.93m), making a total of four podium finishes at the UAA level that year. His dominance was recognized with a pair of USTFCCCA All-Region honors in both the Triple jump and High jump, as he posted marks that ranked top 5 in the Midwest.
Over the course of his three years as a Maroon, Shrivastava has been a consistent point scorer for the Maroons, tallying 12 UAA point-scoring performances and earning podium finishes in both the Triple Jump and High Jump across multiple seasons. He also ranks third all-time in both the Indoor High Jump with a mark of 2.04 meters and the Outdoor High Jump with a mark of 2.00 meters, third in the Outdoor Triple Jump with a mark of 15.03 meters, and fourth in the Indoor Triple Jump with a mark of 14.33 meters.
Shrivastava is the 6th Academic All-American in program history and the first since 2022 as he helps extend the University of Chicago streak to 10 consecutive calendar years and 14 of the past 15 calendar years with an Academic All-American, dating back to 2011. He also improves the number of Academic All-Americans in 2025 to 11 for the Maroons, joining three men’s swimmers, two women’s swimmers, one women’s tennis player, three men’s tennis players, and one women’s track athlete. The 11 Academic All-Americans so far in 2025 are now tied for the most in a single calendar year in the history of UChicago athletics, tied with the 2020 season.
