Eight named to WCC Commissioner's Honor Roll

SAN BRUNO, Calif. -- With the conclusion of the 2012-13 academic year, the West Coast Conference is happy to announce the 12th annual WCC Commissioner's Honor Roll, which recognizes student-athletes that have balanced athletic success with academic excellence. For the second consecutive year, over 1,000 WCC student-athletes garnered honors on the Commissioner's Honor Roll for possessing at least a 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale.

The Honor Roll includes eight members of last year's BYU women's cross country team.

Only grades earned at WCC institutions may be used in calculating the grade point average for this award. To be considered for this honor, student-athletes must meet the following requirements:

1. Individuals must have earned a varsity letter in a sport which the conference determined a champion in the recently completed academic year.

2. The cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0 must be based on a 4.0 scale.

3. The individuals must have successfully completed an average of at least 12 graded credit hours (non pass-fail hours) per term.

The conference recognizes those on the WCC Commissioner's Honor Roll in three separate categories:

• 4.00-3.75 – Gold Honors

• 3.74-3.50 – Silver Honors

• 3.49-3.00 – Bronze Honors
