HOUGHTON, N.Y. -- Three members of the Houghton men's basketball program have been named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches Honors Court and the team has earned an NABC Team Academic Excellence Award following the 2025-26 academic year.

It's the second-straight year Houghton student-athletes and the team have earned the honors.

The NABC Team Academic Excellence Awards recognize programs that completed the 2025-26 academic year with a team GPA of 3.0 or higher. The NABC Honors Court, meanwhile, includes junior, senior and graduate student men's basketball players who finished the 2025-26 year with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher.

Houghton's Honors Court recipients included Hudson Idzi, Jair Bialek and Jonathan Rosario.
 
The NABC's academic awards are presented annually to teams and athletes from all levels of college basketball.
 
"College basketball student-athletes do incredible things on the court, but their achievements in the classroom are equally worthy of celebration," said NABC Executive Director Craig Robinson. "Education is one of the NABC's core values, and the hundreds of programs and thousands of athletes represented on these awards reinforce the commitment to academic success that exists across all levels of our sport."
 
Over 2,300 players from all three NCAA divisions and the NAIA earned spots on the NABC Honors Court and nearly 400 programs received NABC Team Academic Excellence Awards for 2025-26. See the full list of Honors Court recipients.
