BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — A total of 63 LSU student-athletes were named to the 2007 SEC Spring Academic Honor Roll, SEC Commissioner Mike Slive announced on Wednesday.
The nationally ranked LSU men’s and women’s track teams topped the list of teams with members on the Honor Roll, placing 15 women, including Anna Lyons, who sports a perfect 4.0 grade point average in human movement, and 15 men on the list, including Isa Phillips, who won the 400-meter hurdles title at the 2007 NCAA Outdoor Championships.
In addition, eight members of the Tiger baseball team made the list, while five members of the nationally ranked softball team were honored, including Academic All-American Dee Dee Henderson. Six men’s golfers and six women’s golfers, including two-time defending Louisiana Golfer of the Year Melissa Eaton, were on the list. Six men’s tennis players, including All-Americans Danny Bryan, Colt Gaston and Ken Skupski, and two women’s tennis players were honored.
A total of 861 student-athletes were named to the 2007 SEC Spring Academic Honor Roll. South Carolina topped the list with 104 student-athletes on the spring academic roster. Florida was next with 86 honorees, followed closely by Georgia with 80 spring student-athletes honored. Both South Carolina and Georgia field equestrian teams in the spring that figure into their total number of spring honor roll recipients.
Each student-athlete must 1) have a GPA of 3.00 for either the preceding academic year or have a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or above at the nominating institution; 2) be on scholarship, a letter winner or have participated on a varsity team for two years if non-scholarship; 3) have completed 24 semester hours of non-remedial credit at the nominating institution; and 4) have been a member of the varsity team for the sport’s entire NCAA Championship segment.
The 2007 SEC Spring Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2006 Summer, 2006 Fall and 2007 Spring terms.
