BROCKPORT, NY -- The Empire Collegiate Wrestling Conference (ECWC) officially published its annual list of All-Academic Team selections for the 2019-20 season on Friday afternoon. The conference honored 56 wrestlers in this season's release, marking the second consecutive year that the All-Academic Team topped the 50-mark.

Brockport posted six wrestlers on the list in 2019-20. Representing the Golden Eagles were: Sam Grey, Austin Reed, Nick Robbins, Kole Taylor, Matt Caccamise, and John Cantwell. Reed, Cantwell and Taylor are now two-time recipients of the prestigious all-academic award.

Recipients of this honor must have a 3.30 cumulative grade-point average or higher (through the last eligible grading period of the current academic year), or have maintained a 3.30-or-better over the past two completed semesters. Wrestlers must also have competed in three separate events during the season in order to gain consideration. Freshmen and transfers that have been enrolled full-time for at least one semester are eligible to receive this honor.

Brockport placed third in the team competition and claimed three individual regional titles at the 2020 NCAA Mideast Regional Championships hosted by Ithaca College. Nationally-ranked No. 5 Matt Caccamise (125 lb), Elijah Sims (141 lb) and nationally-ranked No. 9 Richard Knapp (285 lb) won regional titles to punch their tickets to the NCAA Division III Championships for the Golden Eagles.
