MARSHALL, Texas — Earning the top academic award in NCAA Division III volleyball, East Texas Baptist University’s Graycee Mosley is the College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-America Team Member of the Year for 2025. This award recognizes the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances on the court 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.

Mosley becomes the first American Southwest Conference volleyball student-athlete to win this award and the second student-athlete for ETBU. Connor Combs won the CSC Academic All-America Award in back-to-back years in 2016 and 2017. ETBU now has three CSC Academic All-America of the Year award winners, which ties for the most in the ASC.

A biochemistry major who graduated from ETBU in December 2025, Mosley (Troy, Texas) earned the Elite Scholar-Athlete Award for NCAA Division III Volleyball at the National Championship Tournament Banquet and was also named to the CSC Academic All-District Team. She finished with a 4.0 GPA, helping ETBU reach its first-ever NCAA Division III National Championship Tournament as the No. 1 seed and advanced to the Elite 8. She made the President’s List all four years, was in the Alpha Lambda Delta Honor Society, graduated Summa Cum Laude, and was the Outstanding Graduating Senior for the ETBU Chemistry Department.

Using her big heart in community service, Mosley has volunteered locally at several organizations. For Marshall ISD, she has helped with the Fall Festival and Morning High Fives, served as a volunteer PE teacher, and read at the Elementary schools. At Longview's New Beginnings Church, she volunteered at the Back to School Bash and the For the City Project. Her time in Marshall has also been spent at Mission Marshall, Tim Tebow’s Night to Shine, a Mission Trip to Chile, ETBU Serve Day, several Special Needs Nights for volleyball, volunteering at the Boys and Girls Club, and serving as a Pen Pal for Compassion International.

This year, Mosley became ETBU’s all-time career kill leader with 2,032 kills, was named an AVCA First Team All-American, the NCAA Medford Regional Tournament Most Outstanding Player, the ASC Tournament MVP, and the ASC Player of the Year. She finished fourth in the NCAA in total kills (532), 10th in kills per set (4.59), and 16th in total attacks (1,236). Earning eight ASC Player of the Week Awards, she was on the AVCA All-Region First Team and was the AVCA National Player of the Week while being named to the All-ASC First Team.

ETBU went 34-1, winning its third-straight American Southwest Conference Tournament Championship and reaching the No. 1 national ranking. They broke several program records, including the longest win streak at 34 matches, and won the program’s and ASC’s first-ever NCAA Division III Regional Tournament.

Mosley leaves ETBU as a four-time AVCA All-American and an All-Region First Team selection, earning First Team All-American honors in 2024 and 2025. She is a three-time CSC Academic All-American, being named to the First Team the past two years. The only four-time ASC Player of the Year, she won two ASC Tournament MVPs and holds the record for most career Player of the Week awards for any ASC sport at 20. She is the ASC Distinguished Scholar-Athlete winner for both volleyball and track and field and will be a four-time ASC All-Academic team member. The four-year starter led ETBU to three American Southwest Tournament Championships, three NCAA Tournament appearances, and one NCAA Regional Championship.

She joins the other 2025 CSC Volleyball winners in Nebraska’s Bergen Reilly (Division I), Concordia-St. Paul’s Makenna Nold (Division II), and Northwestern College’s Zavyr Metzger (NAIA) as the Academic All-America of the Year winners.
