GORHAM, Maine  –  Adding another award to his resume, senior Colby Frost (Steep Falls, Maine/Bonny Eagle) of the University of Southern Maine Huskies' wrestling team has earned College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District honors. It is the second consecutive year that Frost has been recognized with the academic distinction.
 
To be eligible for Academic All-District recognition student-athletes must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically with a cumulative grade point average of 3.50 or higher. The 2024-25 Academic All-District At-Large Team (including the USM-sponsored sports of field hockey, ice hockey, lacrosse, golf, wrestling) is selected by College Sports Communicators, and recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances in competition and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America program separately recognizes honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
 
Recently named a National Wrestling Coaches' Association (NWCA) Division III Scholar All-American for the third time in his career (2023, 2024, 2025), Frost was also one of 16 members of the Southern Maine wrestling program to earn New England Wrestling Association (NEWA) All-Academic Team honors. 
 
Completing his outstanding four-year career as a Husky, Frost is a two-time NCAA Division III All-American (149 lbs) earning the title in back-to-back seasons in 2024 and 2025.  A four-time All-Region wrestler, a three-time NCAA National Championship qualifier, and a three-time All-NEWA wrestler earning first team honors in 2025, Frost capped his career placing sixth at the 2025 NCAA Division III National Championship, ending his 2024-2025 season with a remarkable record of 38-4, collecting his 100^th career win along the way.
 
Completing his degree as a Health Science major, Frost has been recognized by the University Athletics' Department as a three-time William B. Wise Scholar Athlete in addition to his NWCA and NEWA Academic honors.
