Valley Football Names 2009-10 Academic Honor Roll

ST. LOUIS – Nineteen student-athletes highlight more than 300 who earned selection to the 2009-10 Missouri Valley Conference Honor Roll, as announced by the league office. Those 19 student-athletes earned the league’s highest academic achievement by capturing the Missouri Valley Football Conference President’s Council Academic Excellence Award.

The President's Council Academic Excellence Award requires a minimum 3.8 cumulative grade point average (through Fall 2009 semester), participation in athletics a minimum of two years, and the student-athlete must be within 18 hours of graduation. Also, 82 student-athletes received the league’s Commissioner’s Academic Excellence Award. That requires a minimum grade point average of 3.5 for the previous two semesters, a minimum 3.2 cumulative grade point average, and participation in athletics. Freshmen are not eligible.

In addition, the Missouri Valley Football Conference has announced its 2009-10 Honor Roll, which recognizes academic achievement of student-athletes. To qualify for the Honor Roll, a student-athlete must have recorded a minimum 3.2 grade point average for a specified term (Fall 2009), must have been a member of an athletics team, and must have a minimum of 12 hours of enrollment during the fall.
