At West Point, Drysdale is the Captain of the Corps of Cadets for the 2022-23 academic year which is the highest position in the cadet chain of command.

The award is given by College Sports Communicators (formerly known as CoSIDA) annually to the most accomplished student-athletes for academic and athletic achievement each year since 1952.

To be eligible for the team, a student-athlete must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or better and be a starter or key reserve.
CSC's academic team is the longest-running and most prestigious academic and athletic award for student-athletes. Nominating and voting are privileges held exclusively by College Sports Communicators members on behalf of student-athletes from throughout the NCAA, NAIA, two-year Colleges and Canadian institutions.
