GREENWOOD, Ind. - North Florida men's basketball announces selections earned by Oscar Berry, Nate Lliteras, Jasai Miles and Jaylen Smith to the College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District Team, as announced by the national organization on Tuesday afternoon.
"One of our greatest accomplishments throughout our staff's tenure is our ability to not only produce top-level players, but high academic achievers that emphasize the true essence of a student-athlete," head coach Matthew Driscoll said. "These four players, in addition to countless others in the past have continued to prove the holistic approach surrounding our program that the balance on and off the floor yields lifelong benefits to everything that they set out to accomplish."
After having three selections last season and 11 selections since 2019-20, the Ospreys continue to build its total with two selections from their seniors and another pair from the sophomore class.
