Just a little over a week after earning the PSAC Top Team GPA award, the Seton Hill baseball program picked up another academic award on Thursday afternoon.  This one is from the American Baseball Coaches Association as the Griffins were named an ABCA Team Academic Excellence Award recipient.  This is the sixth straight season the Griffins have earned the award from the ABCA.  Seton Hill and Bloomsburg were the only two school from the PSAC to earn the award.  

The 2020-21 ABCA Team Academic Excellence Award is an award which honors high school and college programs that posted a GPA over 3.0 on a 4.0 scale for the academic year. Over 580 high school and college programs were recognized with the award.
