Twenty-one Gophers programs were represented on the Big Ten Distinguished Scholar list.
MINNEAPOLIS – The Big Ten Conference announced its 2020-21 Big Ten Distinguished Scholar Award recipients on Thursday with a University of Minnesota record 180 student-athletes earning recognition from the conference.
Twenty-one Minnesota programs are represented on this year's Big Ten Distinguished Scholar list while 34 Maroon & Gold student-athletes maintained perfect 4.0 grade point averages during the 2020-21 academic year (Annabelle Ackroyd, Maya Albertin, Sam Baer, Tyler Davis, Colton Dee, Erin Dunning, Abbey Erwin, Katie Hallahan, Bethany Hasz, Megan Hasz, Phillip Howard, Ellee Jensen, Katelyn Kemmetmueller, Bit Klecker, Abby Kohut-Jackson, Sydney Kretlow, Val Larson, Derik LeCaptain, Jessica Lee, Duncan Lester, Ona Loper, CC McGraw, Henry Meeker, Gabby Mullally, Alex Plasencia, Lexy Ramler, Maria Rickman, Collin Sieffert, Tate Sweeney, Calvin Swenson, Sammy Walker, Taylor Wente, Madeline Wethington, Hannah Willmarth).
Big Ten Faculty Representatives established the Distinguished Scholar Award in 2008 to supplement the Academic All-Big Ten program. Distinguished Scholar Award recipients must have earned Academic All-Big Ten recognition in the previous academic year, must have been enrolled full time at the institution for the entire previous academic year (two semesters or three quarters) and earned a minimum GPA of 3.70 or better during the previous academic year, excluding any summer grades. The Academic All-Big Ten threshold is a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or higher for a student-athlete's academic career.
Today's announcement is the latest academic achievement for the University of Minnesota in 202-21. As a department, the 'U' set a new school record with 431 total Academic All-Big Ten accolades while the school also set a new department record with a 3.44 cumulative grade point average this semester (the seventh-straight semester of improvement for the Gophers).
