A total of 72 Argonauts earned Academic Honor Roll distinction

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The University of West Florida had 10 student-athletes named to the Gulf South Conference Spring Academic Honor Roll as announced by the league office.
 
Jacob Heath and Dalton Neuschwander from baseball, Madelyn Vasquez from softball, Joaquin Estevez and Sebastian Sotelo from men's tennis, Luiza Daud and Aline Midori Da Silva from women's tennis, Cooper Tendick from men's golf and Kate Kenthack and Alia Scotka from women's golf were selected by a vote of the GSC Sports Information Directors.
 
Additionally, a total of 72 Argonauts achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better and participated against outside competition in the Spring.
 
The Spring All-Academic teams featured 92 student-athletes across nine GSC-sponsored sports – baseball, softball, men's and women's golf, women's lacrosse, men's and women's outdoor track and field, and men's and women's tennis. Student-athletes were selected by each institution's sport information directors. Schools were not able to vote for their own nominees.
 
In order to be named to the GSC All-Academic team, nominees must have a cumulative GPA of 3.20 or better their entire academic career at their institution and may not be a freshmen or first-term transfer. The student-athlete must also be a significant contributor to the team. Other factors include leadership, community service and extracurricular activities. Institutions are not allowed to vote for their own student-athletes. The number of student-athletes selected in each sport is determined by the number of positions normally involved in the playing of that sport. Ties are not broken. 
 
To achieve honor roll status, a student-athlete must have a grade point average of 3.00 or better and have competed in outside competition at the time award was announced.
