"We're very excited any time that our student-athletes can be recognized for their efforts in the classroom," said Karen Schiferl, Associate Athletics Director for Academic Support. "The freshman year is a huge transition for a student-athlete. I'm proud to see these student-athletes were able to make that transition and achieve success on the field and in the classroom."
