17 Keydets were named to the SoCon Fall Academic All-Conference Team released by the league Jan. 15, 2019. Each of the SoCon’s 10 full member institutions had at least 17 honorees, representing the sports of men’s and women’s cross-country, football, men’s and women’s soccer, and volleyball.To be eligible for the academic all-conference team, student-athletes must carry at least a 3.3 cumulative grade-point average at the conclusion of the fall semester and were required to compete in at least one-half of their teams’ competitions during the recently concluded campaign.
