PROVO, UT-- BYU's John Pearce, a sophomore on the men's tennis team, was named to the West Coast Conference 2015-16 Men's Tennis All-Academic Team on Thursday. 

Pearce, from Provo, Utah, boasts a conference-high 3.96 GPA and is studying economics. He finished the season with a 12-8 singles record, playing mostly at the No. 4 slot, and posted a 14-6 doubles record to help the Cougars to a second place regular season WCC finish. 

At the end of each season, the WCC selects an all-academic squad for each WCC-sponsored sport. A student-athlete must maintain at least a 3.20 cumulative grade point average while also being a significant contributor to his team to be considered.
