NORFOLK, Va. – A school-record 89 Norfolk State University student-athletes have been named members of the 2013-14 MEAC Commissioner’s All-Academic Team.
The number is 13 higher than last year’s previous record of 76. To be selected, athletes must be sophomores, juniors or seniors with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. Athletes must have also been in at least their second year at their current school during the 2013-14 academic year.
Only Delaware State (136), Howard (131), Bethune-Cookman (114) and South Carolina State (96), all of which offer more sports programs than NSU, had more athletes selected to the MEAC All-Academic Team than did the Spartans.
