Emory University placed 57 student-athletes on the University Athletic Association Fall All-Academic Team earlier this week. 583 student-athletes in total from the eight association schools were recognized by the UAA.

The 57 Emory Eagles recognized were spread out over five sports that compete in the fall with women’s cross country leading the way with 15 student-athletes.
