March 25, 2025 | Men's Basketball
LOS ANGELES – UCLA senior Lazar Stefanovic and junior Tyler Bilodeau have been named as NCAA Division I Academic All-District selections, as recognized by the College Sports Communicators (CSC) this week.
Both Stefanovic and Bilodeau have earned Academic All-District acclaim for the second straight season. Stefanovic secured the academic honor at the conclusion of the 2023-24 season, as a junior. Bilodeau was an all-district selection at the end of his sophomore season at Oregon State (2023-24).
Stefanovic was one of three Bruins to compete in all 34 games for UCLA in 2024-25, averaging 4.7 points and 1.9 rebounds per game. He shot 40.4 percent from the field, 32.0 percent from 3-point distance and 95.5 percent (21-for-22) at the free throw line. Stefanovic is on track to graduate this spring with his undergraduate degree in sociology.
Bilodeau secured third-team All-Big Ten Conference honors as a junior. In addition, he was named a first-team NABC All-Pacific District selection last week. He averaged a team-leading 13.5 points per game and was second on the Bruins' team in rebounding (4.6 rpg). Bilodeau shot 49.6 percent from the field and led the Bruins in three-point shooting percentage (40.0%) in 33 games. In addition, he shot 71.7 percent at the free throw line (66-for-92).
Undergraduate student-athletes must have compiled at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (4.0 scale) and must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically, in order to qualify for the award.
The Academic All-District honorees are considered for advancement to the CSC Academic All-America ballot. First, second, and third-team Academic All-America honorees will be announced on April 15, 2025.
