Academic Success


In addition to our 3rd straight AMCC Conference Championship and our  3rd consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament, we would also like to recognize the success of our student athletes in the classroom.  As a team we exceeded our goal of having a team GPA over a 3.0, finishing up the Spring with a 3.07 GPA.  Individually we had nine players with a 3.0 or higher, and five players with a 3.5 or higher!
