The Ursinus women earned a team grade-point average of 3.42, while the men checked in with a 3.25.

The Bears combined to place nine student-athletes on the Centennial Conference Fall Academic Honor Roll – sophomore Kyle Berardi, senior Jonny Cope, and juniors John Haase, Craig Lauer, and James McDaid of the men's team and seniors Riley Engel, Brittany Gasser, Gabrielle Manto, and Audrey Simpson of the women's team.
