COLUMBIA, Mo. - Mizzou athletics has once again helped distinguish the University of Missouri as one of the finest academic institutions in the Southeastern Conference as 50 Mizzou student-athletes landed on the annual SEC Fall Honor Roll, announced by the SEC Wednesday (Feb. 11).
In all, Gary Pinkel's SEC East Champion football team produced 26 SEC Honor Roll members. Additionally, head soccer coach Bryan Blitz saw 15 of his 16 eligible student-athletes earn SEC Honor Roll distinction and Wayne Kreklow's volleyball team also had all but one eligible player earn a place on the list. Volleyball had nine total selections.
The 2014 Fall SEC Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2014 Spring, Summer and Fall terms.
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 should 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.
