Pioneers achieve academic honors
For the seventh consecutive year, the University of Wisconsin-Platteville student-athletes had a higher grade-point average than the student body as a whole, Athletic Director Mark Molesworth announced.
The Pioneer student-athletes compiled an 2.909 grade-point average for the 2006-07 academic year, Molesworth reported, noting the general student body overall g.p.a. was 2.876.
"It's a tremendous accomplishment for our student-athletes, coaches and staff," he said.
One-hundred and fifty athletes made the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Scholastic Honor Roll as well as the school's Gabe Miller Academic Honor Roll for having above a 3.00 g.p.a during the year. The latter list is named in honor of Gabe Miller, who died just weeks after playing on the Pioneers' 1995 undefeated national championship basketball team. More than 1,500 UWP student-athletes have been named Gabe Miller Academic Scholars.
