Pioneers achieve top grades

The UW-Platteville athletic department achieved its goal of having its student-athletes obtain a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average for the 2002-03 school year, athletic director Mark Molesworth announced today.

One-hundred seventy Pioneers were above 3.00 during the year to earn Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference academic honors as well as spots on the University’s Gabe Miller Academic Honor Roll. The latter award is named after the late UWP basketball player, who died shortly after helping the Pioneers to the 1995 NCAA III national basketball championship.

The Pioneer student-athletes had a cumulative 3.007 g.p.a. during the year, up from 2.954 the previous year and above the 2.905 obtained by the University as a whole.
