MANHEIM, Pa. – Over 20 South Atlantic Conference Carolinas men’s wrestlers earned National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) Division II Scholar All-America honors. 

The NWCA released the honorees on Monday, April 6, 2020.

A total of 277 student-athletes from 51 institutions were honored individually. Half of the national qualifiers to the 2020 NCAA Division II National Championships were among those honored, with 94 of the 277 Scholar All-American wrestlers also being 2020 National Qualifiers. 

In order for a student-athlete to be nominated to the Division II Scholar All-American Team, he must have a minimum 3.4 cumulative grade point average on a 4.0 scale, with that benchmark at 3.2 for those who qualified for the 2020 NCAA Division II Wrestling Championships. The athlete must also have competed in a minimum of five dates of competition. 

Limestone’s Alex Dilagge was one of just 12 wrestlers to be honored for earning a 4.0 grade-point average.
