Lisa Gunnarsson Named First Team CoSIDA Academic All-American

Baton Rouge, La. – Lisa Gunnarsson was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-America First Team on Thursday morning. It marks the second straight year she has garnered the award.

Gunnarsson, who is majoring in mechanical engineering, has kept a 4.158 GPA. She also won two NCAA pole vault titles this season to become the first woman in LSU history to win a national championship in that event. Her NCAA indoor/outdoor sweep of the pole vault titles made her the first woman to do so since 2010.
