AMES, Iowa – The Iowa State football team is one of just 13 programs nationally that has earned the 2023 American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Academic Achievement Award.
The award is based on the Cyclones having a 100 percent graduation rate from the recently released NCAA graduation success rate report. The rate was for the program’s 2016 freshman football student-athlete class. It marks the first time Iowa State has received the honor.
The Memphis Touchdown Club presents the annual award, which is sponsored by BSN Sports.
