WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Five Penn College student-athletes were named to the College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District Division III At-Large Team, the organization announced Tuesday. Seniors
Peyton Mussina (golf),
Noah Hunt (wrestling), and
Walt Heiser (lacrosse) joined sophomores
Travis Green (wrestling) and Nick Woodruff (wrestling).
The 2024-25 Academic All-District® Men's and Women's At-Large teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances in competition and in the classroom. To be eligible, student-athletes must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade-point average and meet strict, sport-specific playing time requirements. The at-large program encompasses all sports that do not have their own Academic All-America program.
Mussina (Montoursville, Pa.) finished his senior season with his second PING/GCAA Division III all-region selection, his third United East first team appearance, made the cut at the NCAA Division III Championships for the second consecutive season after leading Penn College to its third-straight conference championship, and was named the United East Elite 20 honoree. Mussina is also a nominee for the CSC Academic All-America Team, which will be announced in July.
Hunt (Muncy, Pa.) capped his career with his first trip to the NCAA Division III Championships as the second-ever Wildcat to make the national tournament. Hunt, who was the AMCC title at 141-pounds, became the program's first four-time region place-finisher and the first Wildcat to eclipse the 100-win mark.
Heiser (Milford, N.J.) concluded his career with a United East first team selection after helping the Wildcats to a runner-up finish and was awarded the conference's Elite 20 honor.
Woodruff (Wyalusing, Pa.) finished the season with a sixth-place finish in the Region 2 Championships and claimed his first conference title by winning the AMCC 197-pound bracket.
Green (Manchester, Md.) won the AMCC 174-pound title and was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Wrestler.
