2019 Sports360AZ All-Academic Track Team (5A-6A)

For seven years, Sport360AZ has been committed to acknowledging the best and brightest student athletes in Arizona. We are excited to introduce the Sports360AZ All-Academic Track Team brought to you by Arrow Awards to recognize excellence of student-athletes not only on the track but in the classroom as well.

We were overwhelmed by the response from players, coaches, athletic directors and parents and their nominations.

Arrow Awards is a family owned and operated business that has been a part of the Valley since 1986. Arrow Awards has decades of experience in the awards business and operate with the latest state of the art engraving equipment including laser engraving. Arrow Awards is proud to have pioneered the concept of free engraving (up to 150 characters per item purchased) influencing other trophy shops to adopt the concept in order to remain competitive in the industry. Their production is done entirely in house and rush orders can be accommodated.

A few notes on how the team was compiled:

Sports360AZ reached out to every AIA high school track coach and athletic director in the state requesting nominations based on performance in the classroom. We also opened up nominations to parents and players as well. This is the only way to be named to the all-academic team. We are excited to present the Sports360AZ 2019 All-Academic Track Teams brought to you by Arrow Awards!

Thank you so much for your nominations, and be sure to use #Sports360AZScholars when sharing these teams on social media.
