TEMPE, Ariz. (July 24, 2024) – The Intercollegiate Tennis Association announced that six student-athletes from the Stevens Institute of Technology men's tennis program have earned Scholar-Athlete honors.

Seniors Aashi Kulakarni and Andrew He joined juniors Vivek Harinarayan and Olof Persson, sophomore Max-William Kanz, and first-year Johnny Haase in being recognized by the ITA thanks to their impressive performances in the classroom.

Kulakarni and He each collected their fourth ITA Scholar-Athlete awards. Person and Harinarayan are now three-time recipients, Kanz earns his second, and Haase records the first of his career.

Additionally, the Ducks again earned All-Academic Team honors after finishing the 2023-24 academic year with a 3.757 cumulative grade-point average.

A student-athlete qualifies as an ITA Scholar-Athlete by being a varsity letter-winner, having a GPA of at least a 3.5 (on a 4.0 scale) for the current academic year, and having been enrolled at their present school for at least two semesters (including first through senior years). For the team to qualify as for the All-Academic Team accolade, the program must have a team GPA of 3.2 or above (on a 4.00 scale), all student-athletes included should be listed on the institutional eligibility form and all varsity letter-winners should be factored into the cumulative team GPA for the current academic year.

In 2024, 1,079 Division III male student-athletes were named an ITA Scholar-Athlete and 129 men's tennis programs were awarded the All-Academic Team distinction.
