Boyd Named Second Team Academic All-American

UCLA’s Maggie Boyd was selected to the 2024-25 Academic All-America® Women’s At-Large second team, as selected by the College Sports Communicators (CSC). She becomes just the second Bruin beach volleyball player ever to receive the award (Abby Van Winkle, second team, 2023).

Boyd, a junior from Flower Mound, Texas, is a three-time first-team All-America honoree and was named the MPSF Player of the Year in 2025. Additionally, she was one-half of the MPSF Pair of the Year and was a first-team All-MPSF selection after going 32-4 on the year (31-4 on court one). Additionally, Boyd and freshman Sally Perez won the AVCA Pairs National Championship in the fall of 2024 before the regular season began to become the first Bruins to win that title.

UCLA student-athletes have earned a total of eight Academic All-America® honors so far this season, tied for the second-most in a single year in school history. Over the last two seasons, UCLA has earned 18 Academic All-America® honors to increase its overall total to 158.
