GREENWOOD, Ind. -- Two members of the Augustana Vikings softball team have been named to the CSC Academic All-District Team, the organization announced Tuesday morning. Emma Evans and Mikaylin Hofer were among those recognized.

The 2024-25 Academic All-District® softball teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.
