Northbrook, Ill. – Allstate and the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) have announced the inaugural Good Works Team that celebrates student-athletes across all sports, and Nate Sullivan from the UNC Asheville cross country and track and field team has been named a nominee for the winter team.

Allstate and the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) proudly honors 193 student-athletes excelling in academics, sports and community impact. Nominated by athletics administrators, conference office staff, and coaches, these student-athletes embody leadership, service and character and will now be considered for selection to the inaugural Allstate NACDA Good Works Team (Winter).
"These young women and men are more than competitors – they're leaders, changemakers and role models," said Holly Rowe, ESPN reporter, play-by-play commentator and Allstate NACDA Ambassador. "Their influence extends beyond the game, shaping communities and teaching others the value of leadership skills, like empathy, resilience and integrity, which will last a lifetime."
A legacy of college sports
Announced in December, the Allstate NACDA Good Works Team builds on the legacy of the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team®, which has celebrated college football players' good work off the field since 1992. Now, 60 more student-athletes across all sports and all divisions will be honored annually – three groups of 20 representing the fall, winter and spring collegiate athletics seasons.
"Athletes in sports that don't always make the headlines demonstrate the same dedication to service and leadership as any other competitor," said Elizabeth Brady, Allstate's chief marketing, customer and communications officer. "The overwhelmingly positive response to our first-ever Allstate NACDA Good Works Team shows how much this spotlight and support matters. We're honored to share the stories of these inspiring student-athletes."
