CSC Academic All-America Women's At-Large Team

Sara Gundacker and Sydnie Offermann were named to the NAIA Women's At-Large All-America Team® as selected by College Sports Communicators (CSC).

Gundacker was named to the first team and Offermann was selected to the second team in a vote of CSC members.

The honor recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the athletic field and in the classroom. Nominees must be at least sophomores academically and athletically, and have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average. Institutions are limited to a total of six nominees per gender for the at-large division. Eligible sports for the at-large program are competitive cheer, competitive dance, women's beach volleyball, men's and women's bowling, men's and women's golf, men's and women's lacrosse, men's volleyball, and men's and women's wrestling.

Gundacker and Offermann, the back-to-back NAIA Competitive Dancers of the Year, are the fourth and fifth members of the SAU Dance Team named to a CSC Academic All-America® Team, joining Ally Olson (2024), Ellie Schilling (2024) and Leah Zeimet (2025). They are the third and fourth Bees to earn the honor this year alongside Abby Wolter (women's basketball) and Irene Artabe (women's swimming & diving).

Gundacker, a graduate student in Occupational Therapy, was named the NAIA Competitive Dancer of the Year in 2025, while Offermann, a senior majoring in Psychology, won the Dancer of the Year award in 2026.
