Berrios and Kaaya Earn CoSida Academic All-District Honors

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – University of Miami football juniors Braxton Berrios and Brad Kaaya were named to the 2016 College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-District™ Football First Team in District Four. 
Berrios, who sports a 3.98 grade point average majoring in finance and entrepreneurship was selected to the team for the second consecutive season.

Kaaya was earned a spot on the team with a 3.33 grade point average in public relations.

Both are now eligible for CoSIDA Academic All-America honors. The CoSIDA Academic All-America® Teams will be selected later this month.
 
The CoSIDA Academic All-District teams recognize the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances athletically and in the classroom. The Academic All-District™ teams are divided into eight geographic districts across the United States and Canada.
 
This is the sixth year of the expanded Academic All-America® program as CoSIDA moved from recognizing a University Division (Division I) and a College Division (all non-Division I) and has doubled the number of scholar-athletes honored.
 
The expanded teams include NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II and NCAA Division III participants, while the College Division Academic All-America® Team combines NAIA, Canadian and two-year schools.
