Montclair, NJ - In celebration of NCAA Division III Week, the Montclair State Department of Athletics announced the first of its academic awards with the unveiling of the 3.0 Club.

Over 275 student-athletes, who achieved a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or higher during the Fall 2019 semester, were honored and are listed below by sport. The celebration will continue the remainder of the week with the announcement of the highest team and individual GPA recipients, Dean's List members, Scholar-Athlete Team and the induction of the newest members of the National College Honor Society, Chi Alpha Sigma.

With 450 members, Division III is the largest division within the NCAA, which administers 28 Division III championships. Division III institutions comprise nearly 40 percent of the NCAA's membership and nearly 180,000 student-athletes compete at the Division III level each season. Division III Week is part of an identity initiative, which was introduced in 2010 to sharpen the division's identity and enable schools, conferences, and student-athletes to consistently explain why they prefer to compete in Division III. The initiative is guided by a strategic-positioning platform, describing Division III as a place where student-athletes can "follow your passions and develop your potential," through an approach that combines rigorous academics, competitive athletics and an opportunity to pursue other interests.
