The IUP women's soccer team has been named a recipient of the Team Academic Award for the 2008-09 school year by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America and adidas.
The award is presented to teams that achieve a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 for the entire academic year and "demonstrates a program's commitment to achievement on the field and in the classroom."
