Bates College senior Nathan Berry received Academic All-America honors by College Sports Communicators on Tuesday.
Berry, a Psychology major, was named to the Division III third team. He currently carries a cumulative grade-point average of 3.83.
The Augusta native is the 19th Bobcat honored by CSC with Academic All-America distinction. He’s the first swimming Academic All-American in Bates athletics history.
Berry’s latest honor days after earning six All-America awards at last week’s NCAA Division III championships. That gives Berry 10 All-America honors for his career, which is tied for second-most by any Bates male athlete, along with 2013 grad David Pless, who was a standout thrower on the Bobcats’ track and field team. Swimmer Teddy Pender, a 2018 grad, earned 11 All-America honors during his career.
