HARTFORD, Conn. - Trinity College Athletics announces 43 inductions into Chi Alpha Sigma.  Trinity was accepted in 2019-20 into the National College Athlete Honor Society as the Connecticut Chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma (XAΣ), which recognizes student-athletes from accredited four-year NCAA, NAIA, or NCCAA institutions who excel in both the classroom and competition.  Trinity Associate Athletic Director Kristen Noone serves as advisor for Trinity's chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma.  

Chi Alpha Sigma was founded in 1996 by then DePauw University head football coach Nick Mourouzis. His goal was to provide outstanding student-athletes with an opportunity to become connected within a fraternal association that aligns their educational and athletic successes for a lifetime.  In order to be inducted into Chi Alpha Sigma, a student-athlete must attend a four-year accredited college or university that is a member of the NCAA, NAIA, or NCCAA. The honoree also must achieve at least junior academic standing by the fifth semester or seventh quarter, as determined by the certifying institution, and must have achieved a minimum cumulative grade-point average of a 3.4 on a 4.0 scale which is equivalent to 3.683 for students at Trinity.
