COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - USA Archery has recognized collegiate athletes who excel as both archers and students in confirming the recipients of the 2026 All-American Academic Team Award.
The Collegiate Archery Program gives archers a chance to compete nationwide with peers who also maintain a rigorous academic schedule. This esteemed award acknowledges not just excellence in archery, but also the diligence and dedication needed to manage a demanding practice and competition regimen while excelling academically.
The All-American Academic Team is composed of archers in each division and class and based on the following criteria:
USA Archery takes the top 25% (ranked by score) of each division and class from U.S. National Indoor Championships. Archers that are in the top 25% and who meet the minimum GPA will earn a spot on the team. Archers named to the team will receive a certificate from USA Archery commemorating their achievements.
The 2026 HotelPlanner USA Archery Collegiate Target Nationals, which take place in Lansing, Mich. from May 14-17, will showcase these outstanding student-athletes. The individual and mixed team gold medal matches will be broadcast live on USA Archery's YouTube channel from 8am EDT on May 17.
