To qualify for the USTFCCCA All-Academic Track and Field Team student-athletes must be ranked in the national top-96 for the indoor season or compete in any round of the NCAA Championships during the outdoor season. In the classroom the student-athlete must post a cumulative grade point average of 3.25.
Radden ran the NEC's fastest times for both the 100 and 200 this past season. He qualified for the NCAA East Preliminary with a 21.09-second performance in the 200 meters at the LSU Alumni Meet. That mark was the fastest 200 meter time for an NEC athlete since 2008.
