Hope College volleyball standouts Kamryn Burbridge, Ella Contant, Lauren Lee and Olivia Wyma have been selected to the 2025-26 Academic All-District® Women's Volleyball teams, as chosen by College Sports Communicators.

The CSC Academic All-District® program recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the court and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America® program separately honors women's volleyball student-athletes across four divisions: NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.

To be nominated, student-athletes must have a GPA of 3.5 or higher and meet high athletic standards. Student-athletes selected as CSC Academic All-America® finalists advance to the national ballot, which is voted on by CSC members. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced Jan. 13.

Founded in 1957, CSC is a national association of more than 4,700 strategic, creative and digital communicators across intercollegiate athletics in the United States and Canada, including Hope College.
