The Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) unveiled its 2025-26 CACC Team Academic Award winners on Tuesday as eight schools combined to take home the 16 honors for the 2025-26 academic year.
 
Chestnut Hill College took home one of these honors as their women's lacrosse program was awarded the CACC Team Academic Award.  This year's honors mark the first time the women's lacrosse program has earned the honor since the award was instituted after the 2018-19 season.  The women's lacrosse program is the fifth Chestnut Hill program to earn a CACC Team Academic Award in the eight years of awards existence.
