In the final tally of the Utah High School Activities Association’s Academic All-State teams, student-athletes across Canyons District are proving their stellar skillsets inside the classroom and out.
For spring sports, 64 students from all of CSD’s five traditional high schools — Alta, Brighton, Corner Canyon, Hillcrest, and Jordan — have been honored with spots on the UHSAA’s Academic All-State teams. Student-athletes have been recognized in boys tennis, girls golf, softball, boys and girls track and field, boys volleyball, boys and girls lacrosse, and boys soccer, and baseball.
This year’s student academic and athletic achievements make it the second winningest year for Canyons District with a total of 149 Academic All-State recipients. It is second only to the 2022-2023 school year in which 170 Canyons students were recognized. This spring’s achievements bested last year’s by eight.
Academic All-State award winners have a 4.0 cumulative GPA or meet an index score that takes into account a student’s grades and college-entrance exam scores. A student with a 3.9 GPA, for example, would also need to score a 30 or higher on the ACT in order to qualify.
