Weis is the first men’s soccer player at º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ to win the award since 2015.

One of the most prestigious awards in collegiate athletics, the CSC Academic All-America® program recognizes student-athletes for their combined excellence on the field and in the classroom. Nominees must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.50, demonstrate significant athletic contributions, and complete at least one year at their current institution.

Weis capped a stellar 2024 season as the cornerstone of the Prairie Wolves' defense.  His 100 saves, seven clean sheets, and an 83.3% save percentage were all career highs in his senior season. Weis played a key role in leading º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ to its first-ever appearance in the American Rivers Conference Championship match, showcasing dominant performances in the tournament's early rounds by conceding only one goal. Weis earned All-Conference honors for the fourth straight season, cementing his legacy as one of º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½'s most decorated goalkeepers.
