93 Named to Athletic Director’s Spring Honor Roll

URBANA, Ohio (July 7, 2010) - The Urbana University Athletic Department and Athletic Director Doug Young are pleased to announce that 93 Blue Knight student-athletes have been named to the 2010 Spring Honor Roll.  A record 50 female student-athletes made the list, which requires student-athletes to maintain a minimum GPA of 3.25 and enroll in at least 12 credit hours for the semester.  The mark of 93 total student-athletes are just off the record pace of 97 set in the Fall of 2008, and the student-athletes' cumulative GPA of 2.92 is just off the school record 3.0 average set after the fall semester.

The women's team, who posted a gender-best 3.30 in the fall, set a new high with a 3.32 GPA this spring.  The women's basketball team led the way with a 3.56 team GPA.  It was the 32nd straight semester that the women's basketball team has posted a GPA of at least 3.0 under Head Coach Rob Phillips.

The soccer team posted a high GPA of 2.99 on the men's side.  Overall, there were 18 student-athletes with a 4.0 GPA for the semester, which was another new record high.
