Bulldogs earn MIAA Academic Honors posted 6/30/08
60 student-athletes and four teams honored

It has been announced that 60 Adrian College student-athletes and four teams competing in MIAA-sponsored sports were named to the MIAA Academic Honor Roll and Team GPA Award list for the 2007-08 school year.

According to the MIAA website, the honor roll recognizes scholar-athletes who achieved a minimum 3.5 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) for the entire 2007-08 academic year. The Academic Honor Roll program was initiated in 1990 to recognize students at MIAA member colleges who excel both in athletics and in the classroom.

Additionally, the Team GPA Award is presented to conference teams that achieve a 3.300 or better grade point average for an entire academic year. Of the 49 teams to earn this year's honor, four teams have received the award every year since it was initiated in 1998-99, including the Adrian women's track & field team.

Sara Morningstar (Addison, Mich./Addison H.S.), Nichole Roose (Utica, Mich./Lutheran North H.S.), and Ian Weber (Defiance, Ohio/Tinora H.S.) are three of 54 senior student-athletes who achieved the distinction of being named to the MIAA Academic Honor Roll each of their four years in school.
