The women’s soccer team is tied for frist place with the overall highest grade point average for all UNLV Athletics. The UNLV Women’s Soccer Team was a part of a school-record 43 total athletics from UNLV on the Academic-All MWC team, according to conference officials. There were 13 women’s soccer players announced to the team. To even be considered eligible for the team, student-athletes must have completed at least one academic term at UNLV while maintaining a cumulative gpa of 3.0 or better, and be a starter or impact player.
It’s important to point out academic accomplishments, especially with all the negative press UNLV athletics has been receiving lately from concerned citizens of the community and media. Contrary to the belief of many, being a college athlete is about more than just putting effort into the sport.
