Gators Place 99 on SEC Spring Academic Honor Roll

The University of Florida placed 99 student-athletes on the 2018 Southeastern Conference Spring Academic Honor Roll, announced today by league commissioner Greg Sankey.

The 2018 SEC Spring Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2017-18 summer, fall and spring terms.

Florida’s SEC title men’s and women’s track & field teams placed 26 and 20, respectively, on the Academic Honor Roll. The SEC champion softball and baseball teams placed nine and 12 student-athletes, respectively, on the list. The Gator lacrosse team, which swept the Big EAST regular season and tournament titles, saw 17 earn a spot on Academic Honor Roll. Both golf teams and women’s tennis each placed three on the list, while men’s tennis was represented by six players.

Two Gators turned in 4.0 grade point averages for the 2017-18 academic year – Samuel Ahrenholz (Men’s Track & Field) and Josie Kuhlman (Women’s Tennis). Kuhlman, who owns a cumulative 4.0 GPA, received the SEC Scholar-Athlete Award for women’s tennis at the league tournament in April. Junior Anders Eriksson shared track’s SEC Scholar-Athlete Award with Mississippi State’s Nicolas Quijera. Kuhlman and Eriksson each were named to Google Cloud Academic All-America teams earlier this month.

To be recognized to the SEC Academic Honor Roll, each student-athlete must 1) have a GPA of 3.00 for either the preceding academic year or have a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or above at the nominating institution; 2) be on scholarship, a letterwinner or have participated on a varsity team for two years if non-scholarship; 3) have completed 24 semester hours of non-remedial credit at the nominating institution; and 4) have been a member of the varsity team for the sport’s entire NCAA Championship segment.
