07/01/2015 | General, Academic Services
The 1,559 is the highest number of student-athletes that have qualified for the award in a 14-member Atlantic 10 since 2007, surpassing the 1,470 set during the 2014 fall semester. In addition, the 14 member institutions had an average 111.3 student-athletes qualify for the Commissioner's Honor Roll, shattering last semester's record average of 105 honorees per institution. Both marks are the best single semester numbers of Commissioner Bernadette V. McGlade's tenure.
Including the fall semester numbers, there were a total of 3,029 honorees during 2014-15, the most in league history for a 14-member Atlantic 10, and the second most all-time.
To be listed on the bi-annual Commissioner's Honor Roll, a student-athlete in an Atlantic 10-sponsored sport must have a 3.5 GPA or better (on a 4.0 scale) during the specified semester. Freshmen are eligible to receive the award.
