PORTALES, NM – On Tuesday, the Lone Star Conference released its Commissioner’s Honor Roll to highlight the academic achievements for the 2016-17 spring semester. Of the 1,116 student-athletes that garnered honors, Eastern New Mexico University led the league with 155 honorees. Eastern also paced the LSC with 171 honorees in the fall, to finish with 326 total between the two semesters.
“We are extremely proud of the academic achievements our student-athletes continue to post,” said ENMU Athletic Director Dr. Greg Waggoner. “This demonstrates their commitment to their academics while competing well in their intercollegiate sports. Credit also goes to the coaching staff, support staff, faculty and the ENMU administration for all that they do to facilitate an environment to make this happen.”
To be eligible for the LSC Commissioner’s Honor Roll, a student athlete must have at least a 3.3 grade-point average for the designated semester and be on a roster. The league releases its honor roll at the conclusion of each semester of the academic year.
Of the honorees, 332 student athletes posted a perfect 4.0 grade-point average. ENMU’s 36 student athletes ranked third in the LSC in this category.
