Sam’s selection is a rare father-son accomplishment, as his father, Fred, was a first-team Academic All-American at Iowa State in 1995.A four-time Academic All-Big Ten selection, Hoiberg led Nebraska to its most successful season in program history, as the Huskers finished 28-7 record and the program’s first NCAA Sweet 16 appearance in 2025-26.

He set a school record and finished ninth nationally in assist-to-turnover ratio (3.74-to-1) as a senior. This marks the second consecutive Academic All-America First Team honor for Martinelli, who joins Shon Morris as the only Wildcats to claim First Team Academic All-America honors in consecutive seasons. The Communications Studies major is the fifth Northwestern player to receive first team honors, joining Drew Crawford (2014), Mike Campbell (1980), Jim Burns (1967) and Morris. He becomes the 14th Big Ten player to earn First Team Academic All-America recognition in consecutive years since the honor began in 1963.Martinelli concluded his collegiate career by leading the Big Ten in scoring for the second consecutive season.
