On December 2, 2025, York University Athletics & Recreation hosted its annual academic awards banquet to recognize the incredible scholastic achievements of our student-athletes. The event proudly celebrated the nearly 100 Lions who earned U SPORTS Academic All-Canadian honours for the 2024-25 academic year.

To be nominated to receive a U SPORTS Academic All-Canadian Award, the nominee or recipient must be a U SPORTS-eligible student-athlete at the time of nomination or receipt of award and be free of any “major” disciplinary sanctions or suspensions from their university, Regional Association Conference Office or U SPORTS, in the academic year in question. Further, the athlete must have been enrolled as a student-athlete, as determined by their institution (minimum 18 credit hours as per U SPORTS regulations). Additionally, the athlete must have received a September to August 31 grade point average, which takes into consideration every course the athlete was registered in during that period, equivalent to an A- (or 80%) or better. Finally, the athlete must also have been a member of one or more of the institution’s U SPORTS varsity teams and have used a year of eligibility for that sport.
