RICHARDSON, Texas (August 20, 2025) – Three Lubbock Christian University teams were named Sport Academic Champions, the Lone Star Conference announced on Tuesday.
 
The Sport Academic Championships are given to the member institution with the highest team GPA in each sport, and LCU claimed titles in men's soccer, women's indoor track and field and women's outdoor track and field.
 
This is the third consecutive year the LCU men's soccer program has claimed the honor.
 
Texas Woman's captured its third consecutive and record eighth overall women's award, while St. Edward's earned the men's honor for the first time as the athletic departments with the highest collective team grade-point average (GPA) for the 2024-25 academic year.
 
The overall award winners were determined by a point system, with points distributed according to finish by sport in those that the LSC sponsors after a conference-wide comparison of team GPAs. The member institution with the highest team GPA in each sport was named the Sport Academic Champion and earned five (5) points toward the overall award. The runner-up in each sport picked up four (4) points and third-place three (3) points toward the overall award. Any program with a Team GPA of 2.00 and above earned one (1) point. Points for each member institution were totaled by gender and then divided by that institution's number of counter programs in that gender to arrive at the comparison value.
