BUIES CREEK, N.C. - Campbell women's soccer had four student-athletes named Academic All-District by the College Sports Communicators (CSC).
Jessica Donald, Cazzi Norgren, Laney Peabody and Mary Tierney were recognized among the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America program separately recognizes soccer honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
Academic All-District honorees advance to the CSC Academic All-America ballot. First-, second- and third-team Academic AllAmerica honorees will be announced in early December.

She earned a 3.914 cumulative GPA in mechanical engineering and is currently pursuing her MBA with a 4.00 GPA. On the field, Donald netted a team-high eight goals paired with six assists to total 22 points on the year.
