BATON ROUGE – LSU women’s golf freshman Carlos Tejedo Mulet was named to the 2020-21 First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll announced Tuesday by SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey.
Tejedo Mulet, from Castellon de Plana, Spain, helped the Tigers get back to the 2021 NCAA national championship tournament, where the Tigers finished ninth. She is majoring in sociology.
The First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2020-21 academic calendar.
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. (5) The student-athlete must have been a member of a varsity team for the sport’s entire NCAA Championship segment.
First year student-athletes in all sports may be named to the Honor Roll at the conclusion of their first full academic year in residence (spring, fall and summer terms).
A total of 1,130 student-athletes from the 14 league schools made the first-year Academic Honor Roll.
