The 2023 Academic All-District® Women's Soccer Teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.
The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes football honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA. Academic All-District® honorees are considered for advancement to the CSC Academic All-America® ballot. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced on January 23.
A finance major with a 3.66 GPA, Jasinski makes a repeat appearance on the All-District Team after being honored last year. The senior co-captain finished second on the team in receptions (36) and touchdowns (4) and third in receiving yards (362) en route to receiving All-NJAC honorable mention. He was a second-team all-conference performer in 2022.
A finance major with a 3.64 GPA, Maurice was fourth on the team with 38 total tackles in 2023. The senior defensive back also had two interceptions (one of which he returned for a touchdown) and three forced fumbles to go with three pass break-ups.
A criminology major with a 3.70 GPA, Pierro joins Jasinski as a two-time Academic All-District honoree. The senior defensive lineman tallied 20 tackles, including 4 for loss, and 1.5 sacks this past season.
