Two members of the Chestnut Hill College Men's Basketball team have been named to the 2025-26 College Sports Communicators Academic All-District® Men's Basketball team in an announcement made by the organization and the CSC Academic All-America® committee.
Named to the team were seniors Alejandro Redondo Cybak and Landon Shivers. The two players are earning Academic All-District ® honors for the second consecutive year.
The 2025-26 Academic All-District® Men's Basketball Teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field or court and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes men's basketball honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
To be eligible for Academic All-District® accolades, student-athletes must be at least at sophomore athletically and academically, appear in 90 percent of their team's contests or start in 66% and have a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or better. Graduate students must have a 3.50 cumulative GPA in both their undergraduate and graduate programs.
Academic All-District® honorees are reviewed by a group of Academic All-America® committee members for consideration for advancement to the CSC Academic All-America® national ballot, where first, second and third team Academic All-America® honorees are chosen by the CSC Division II membership and the Academic All-America® core committee. Cybak was among those academic all-district honorees to advance to the national ballot. Honorees will be announced in mid-April.
Cybak, a senior post player and a computer science major, led the team in scoring, rebounding and steals this season, averaging 14.7 points and 9.0 rebuonds per game while recording 22 steals on the season.
