Millikin’s Bradan Birt Named CoSIDA Academic All-District® At-Large Team

          DECATUR, Illinois—Millikin University senior Bradan Birt (Epworth, Iowa, Western Dubuque H.S.) was named to the 2020-21 Academic All-District® At-Large Team, selected by CoSIDA, recognizing the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.
          Birt, a Sports Management major, was named to the At-Large Team for District 7 in NCAA Division III. Birt was the 2021 National Champion at 165 pounds at the National Champion at the National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) DIII Coaches Association National Championships where he was named the event's Most Outstanding Wrestler. This season Birt won his fourth College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) individual title and finished the season with a 15-0 record. Birt excels in the classroom as well with a 3.58 cumulative grade point average.
          Birt has a career record of 118-13. He has earned NWCA All-American honors four times. In 2019, he finished second in the NCAA DIII Most Dominant Wrestler Rankings.  He is a three-time CCIW Academic All-Conference honoree and a three-time NWCA Scholar All-American.
          The CoSIDA Academic All-America® program separately recognizes honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA. First-team Academic All-District® honorees advance to the CoSIDA Academic All-America® ballot. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced in early August.
          The Division II and III CoSIDA Academic All-America® programs are partially financially supported by the NCAA Division II and III national governance structures to assist CoSIDA with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2020-21 Divisions II and III Academic All-America® programs.
