SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. – Five Shippensburg University student-athletes have been selected to the 2024-25 Division II Academic All-District ® Men's Track & Field/Cross Country Team, an award that recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performance in athletics and academics.
 
The Raiders who have been recognized for the 2024-25 academic year are cross country athletes and distance specialists sophomore Tommy Crum Jr., senior Aiden Gonder, junior Garrett Quinan, graduate Ian Sherlock and junior Ryan Wolfe.
 
The Academic All-District ® Teams are conducted by the College Sports Communicators (CSC). These five Raiders are now among those who will be considered for the Academic All-America ® Team that will be announced July 16.
 
Gonder, Quinan and Sherlock were also recognized as Academic All-District ® in 2023-24. It is the first Academic All-District ® honor for Crum and Wolfe.
 
Crum has maintained a 3.62 grade point average (GPA) as a communication, journalism & media major (broadcast media production concentration) while capturing Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) indoor titles in the mile and the 3K – earning the moniker of Most Valuable Athlete at the 2024 PSAC Indoor Championships.
 
Gonder has logged a 3.67 GPA as a mechanical engineering major while ranking fourth regionally in the 10K and sixth regionally in cross country.
 
Quinan earned a 3.60 GPA as a civil engineering major. He is the reigning PSAC individual cross country champion (2nd at regionals) and ranked in the top-five regionally in the 10K, 3K and 5K (indoors and outdoors).
 
Sherlock has maintained a 3.93 graduate GPA as a strategic communications major. He won his third-straight PSAC 3K steeplechase title in 2025 and ranked first in the region in the event.
 
Wolfe sports a 3.60 GPA as an accounting and finance dual major. He ended the 2025 outdoor season ranked seventh regionally in the 3K.
 
To be eligible for Academic All-District ® consideration, student-athletes must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically and must be enrolled at their institution at the time of nomination either as undergraduates or graduate students.
 
Academically, an undergraduate student-athlete must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale). A graduate student-athlete must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) as both an undergraduate and a graduate student unless they are in their first semester as a graduate student and don't have an established graduate GPA.
 
For track & field, eligibility for Academic All-District ® consideration is a bit more specific than other sports. A student-athlete must rank among the Top 50 individuals in a single event indoors or outdoors per the Track & Field Results Reporting System (TFRRS) or have finished among the Top 50 at the 2024 NCAA regional or national cross country championships. Relay performances cannot be a sole determinant of eligibility.
 
CSC honors a maximum of five men's and five women's track & field athletes from each school.
