ITHACA, N.Y. – Sophomore men's golfer Devon Thomas has been named to the 2017 Capital One Academic All-District At-Large Team as voted upon by more than 3,000 members of the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).

Thomas gives Northwest a conference-best five selections this year and 25 CoSIDA Academic All-District selections since 2012.

The Lafayette High School product posted a 78.71 scoring average in 17 rounds this season and helped the Rangers to four Top 4 finishes this fall-spring.

Off the course, Thomas was recently named an Ole Miss Lyceum recipient. He's also a 2015-16 NJCAA Academic Student-Athlete award winner, Phi Theta Kappa member, two-time Dean's List honoree and also a member of the President's List. 

The Academic All-District At-Large Team is made up of student-athletes from the NAIA, Canadian and 2-year ranks. 

To be eligible for Academic All-America consideration, a student-athlete must be a varsity starter or key reserve, maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.30 on a scale of 4.00, have reached sophomore athletic and academic standings at his/her current institution and be nominated by his/her sports information director.

First-team Academic All-District® honorees advance to the CoSIDA Academic All-America® Team ballot, where first-, second- and third-team All-America® honorees will be selected later this month.
