GREENVILLE, S.C. – Belmont Abbey has placed 20 student-athletes on Conference Carolinas Fall Academic All-Conference Teams Presented by Barnes & Noble College, the league office announced today. In total, over 300 people were recognized over the conference's 13 member institutions.
"It's been a tremendous fall for our men's and women's cross country, men's and women's soccer and women's volleyball student-athletes in so many different ways, but this continues to show the commitment by these student-athletes in all areas," Commissioner Chris Colvin said. "We strive daily to develop champions in body, mind and soul in Conference Carolinas, and this furthers the point that our student-athletes truly want to continue to lead the way by focusing their efforts in the classroom as well."
The Conference Carolinas Academic All-Conference teams consist of junior and senior student-athletes in the conference who have competed in a conference-sponsored sport and maintained a cumulative grade-point average of 3.25 or higher on a 4.0 scale in all work completed at their member institution.
The GPA is calculated based on the cumulative averages of the student-athletes through the previous semester and each student-athlete must have attended their member institution for at least one academic year.
