Schner, now a two-time Academic All-District honoree, has been the driving force behind the Eagles success so far this season, leading the team to a 16-5 overall record and 9-2 in the UAA with three games remaining. Schner leads all UAA scorers and ranks 19th in all of Division III with his 21.9 points per game while ranking inside the top-5 in the UAA in rebounding (3rd, 8.3 RPG), assists (4th, 3.6 APG) and steals (4th, 1.4 SPG). Schner has been Emory's leading scorer in 14 consecutive games as well as in 18 of the team's 23 games this season and has 14 such contests with 20 points or more. He's been the UAA Athlete of the Week three times this year, was a two-time selection to D3hoops.com National Team of the Week and was a Top 100 finalist for the Bevo Francis Award, an honor that recognizes the nation's top players from across Division II, III, USCAA, NCCAA and NAIA.

Brock has been equally vital for the Emory women during the 2021-22 campaign as she has guided the Eagles to a 14-7 record and 7-4 within the UAA. Brock is tied for second in the conference with 16.5 PPG and currently ranks inside the top-100 of all Division III scorers. She has scored in double figures in 19 of the team's 21 games so far this year and since joining the starting rotation, Brock has led the team in scoring in 10 games including six efforts with 24 points or more. She leads all UAA performers in three-point percentage at 44.1% (45-for-102), third in free throw percentage at 86.5% (64-for-74) and is ninth in steals per game at 1.6. This year, Brock has been a three-time UAA Athlete of the Week selection.

Student-athletes named to Academic All-District Teams are automatically put on the national ballot with an opportunity to be selected as an Academic All-American. CoSIDA Academic All-America Teams for Division III will be announced on Wednesday, March 16th.
