Crooks Captains Allstate NACDA Good Works Winter Team

NORTHBROOK, Ill. - Iowa State junior center Audi Crooks has been named the captain of the 2025-26 Allstate NACDA Good Works Winter Team. The award is presented to 20 student-athletes whose service strengthened their campuses and communities.

The Allstate NACDA Good Works Team was created to spotlight and reward student-athletes for their outstanding community service. Honorees include men and women from all NCAA divisions, with student-athletes recognized each season across winter, spring and fall sports.

This season's team was selected from 180 student-athletes nominated by their schools. Honorees receive a monetary contribution from Allstate to further support their community service, with the team captain receiving an additional contribution and Good Works Team letterman jacket. Iowa State men's basketball's Tamin Lipsey was also a member of the team.

Off the court, Audi is equally influential as the founder of the Audi Crooks Foundation, which empowers youth through education, athletics, and the arts. Her initiatives, including support for Boys & Girls Clubs, food security programs, and her widely praised "Knock N Dash" care package effort, have mobilized entire communities and inspired young volunteers across Kossuth County. Balancing elite athletic performance with meaningful service, Audi continues to elevate both her team and the people she serves.

Athletically, she has earned national recognition as an AP and USBWA All American and appears consistently on the Naismith, Wooden, Wade Trophy, and Lisa Leslie Award watch lists. A dominant force, she has collected numerous Player of the Week honors and established herself as one of the most impactful centers in Division I.
