The University of Minnesota Duluth volleyball team has earned the 2025 American Volleyball Coaches Association Team Academic Award, sponsored by INTENT.

The Bulldogs were one of over a thousand college and high school teams to earn the honor that requires volleyball teams maintain a year-long grade-point average of at least 3.3 on a 4.0 scale to earn the award.

UMD will jump start the 2025 season on Sept. 5 in Lebanon, Ill. against Southwestern Okahoma State University.
