The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga put 33 student-athletes on the Fall Academic All-Southern Conference team, the league office announced today. These individual were honored for excelling in the classroom, as well as their performance on the field. The fall team is made up of representatives from cross country, football, soccer and volleyball.
To be eligible for the academic all-conference team, student-athletes must carry at least a 3.3 cumulative GPA at the conclusion of the spring semester – a change from the previous criteria that was based on the GPA entering the semester of competition – and were required to compete in at least one-half of their teams' competitions. In addition, the student-athletes must have successfully completed at least three semesters at their institutions, making true freshmen and first-year transfers ineligible for inclusion.
The women's cross country team led the SoCon with seven honorees. Women's soccer and volleyball also had seven representatives, while the football team had seven and five from the men's cross country team.
