All-Time Clarkson University CoSIDA Winners

Perryman, who had a 3.99 grade-point average in Mechanical Engineering, becomes the third student-athlete, joining John Coleman (men's basketball/baseball) and Erika Chin (volleyball), in 2013-14 to earn CoSIDA Academic All-American honors. It is only the third time in Clarkson history that the Golden Knights have earned four honors (Coleman won two awards) in a single academic year with the other two occasions coming in 1998-1999 and 1999-2000. Perryman becomes the 19th Clarkson student-athlete to gain CoSIDA Academic All-American honors, with 30 such honors coming to Golden Knights overall.

Perryman, who earned CoSIDA All-District honors in 2012-13 as well, finished 16th overall at the USCSA Nationals held in Lake Placid, NY. He came in 21st in the giant slalom and 21st in the slalom after taking 10th and 17th, respectively, in the same events at the USCSA Eastern Regionals. Perryman battled injuries as a senior, but still ranked highly in the MacConnell Division rankings, where he was a two-time all-star (ranking in the top 15 in the conference) in his sophomore and junior seasons.
