NEWBERRY — Newberry set a new school record by placing 153 student-athletes on the South Atlantic Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll following the spring semester.
In order to be eligible for inclusion to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll, a student must compete in a SAC-sponsored sport and maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.30 or higher. Forty-two additional student-athletes in sports not sponsored by the SAC (Cheer, Field Hockey, Scarlet Poms, and Wrestling) also met the requirements, giving Newberry 195 student-athletes overall with at least a 3.30 GPA.
Newberry’s student-athletes were part of a record 1,703 conference-wide that earned recognition. Click here to read the full release from the South Atlantic Conference.
Eleven student-athletes completed the semester with a perfect 4.0 GPA: Andrew Crook (Baseball), Alyssa Kessler (Field Hockey), Peyton Hite (Football), Luke Gibson and Phoenix Roberts (Men’s Basketball), Taylor Caldwell, Briana Clonta, and Chelsey Cunningham (Softball), Andrea Getz and Dragana Petkovska (Women’s Basketball), and Marta Gomar (Women’s Tennis).
Additionally, 17 Newberry teams sported a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher, led by women’s tennis (3.509) and volleyball (3.502). Men’s soccer was the highest-achieving men’s team with a mark of 3.344.
