While 2011-12 was a tremendous success for Trinity Basketball on the court, what might be even more impressive is the amount of success this team produced off the court. With the SCAC's 2012 Spring Student-Athlete Academic Honor Roll being announced last week, it is easy to see how this year's team set the Trinity Basketball record for highest team GPA in a semester (3.36) - 12 players were on the Honor Roll! In order to be recognized, a player must maintain a minimum grade-point average of 3.25, and for anyone who has ever studied at Trinity University, they know that is much easier said than done!
We would like to congratulate the following outstanding student athletes for putting their priorities in the right order and getting it done in the classroom:
Ryan Beall
John Boxberger
Jimmy Clark
Jacob Cukjati
Matt Feldman
Heath Hopson
Robert Kitzinger
John LaVanway
Zach Lambert
Gil Melchior
Joe Shotland
Jonathan Wilt
These guys are the perfect models for what Division III athletics, and what college athletics SHOULD be all about. We couldn't ask for better student-athletes representing Trinity Basketball.
