BOSTON – Four members of the Northeastern men's basketball program (Youri Fritz, Alexander Nwagha, LA Pratt, Sam Thomson) earned academic honors from the NABC on Thursday.
 
The NABC Honors Court includes junior, senior and graduate student men's basketball players who finished the 2024-25 year with a cumulative grade point average of 3.2 or higher.
 
"Education is one of the NABC's five core values, and we are proud to recognize the academic accomplishments of these programs and individual student-athletes across our sport," said NABC Executive Director Craig Robinson. "The dedication and hard work of these athletes, along with their coaches and support staff members who prioritize academic success, deserves to be widely celebrated."
