BATON ROUGE, La. – Eighty-two LSU student-athletes were named to the 2020 Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll on Friday by SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey. The Spring accolades recognize the sports of baseball, beach volleyball, golf, softball, tennis and track & field. The honor roll is based on grades from the 2019 Summer, 2019 Fall and 2020 Spring terms.
LSU’s list includes CoSIDA Academic All-Americans Lisa Gunnarsson of women’s track & field and members of the nationally-ranked baseball, beach volleyball, women’s golf, softball, women’s tennis and track & field teams.
Any student-athlete who participates in a Southeastern Conference championship sport or a student-athlete who participates in a sport listed on his/her institution’s NCAA Sports Sponsorship Form is eligible for nomination to the Academic Honor Roll.
The following criteria will be followed: (1) A student-athlete must have a grade point average of 3.00 or above for either the preceding academic year (two semesters or three quarters) or have a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 or above at the nominating institution. (2) If a student-athlete attends summer school, his/her grade point average during the summer academic term must be included in the calculation used to determine eligibility for the Academic Honor Roll. (3) Student-athletes eligible for the Honor Roll include those receiving an athletics scholarship, recipients of an athletics award (i.e., letter winner), and non-scholarship student-athletes who have been on a varsity team for two seasons. (4) Prior to being nominated, a student-athlete must have successfully completed 24 semester or 36 quarter hours of non-remedial academic credit toward a baccalaureate degree at the nominating institution.
