The Allstate NACDA Good Works Team was established in 2024 to recognize male and female student-athletes annually across all sports and divisions for their leadership in community service, academics and athletics. The initiative surpassed 500 nominees during its inaugural year. Past honorees include women's basketball center Audi Crooks, who launched the Audi Crooks Foundation in 2025 to provide financial assistance and resources to youth engaged in education, athletics and arts programming; Loyola Chicago goalkeeper Aidan Crawford, who founded Special Olympics Loyola University Chicago to support adults with disabilities; Penn State golfer Jami Morris, who launched Hit Fore Hope, a cancer research fundraiser; and Auburn gymnast Sophia Groth, who supported student parents through nonprofit advocacy with Baby Steps. These student-athletes were recognized as Allstate NACDA Good Works Team captains for their leadership and dedication.
