WCC Release
SAN BRUNO, Calif. --- A total of 27 University of Portland student-athletes were named to the 2010 West Coast Conference Fall All-Academic teams, released today by the league office. The WCC All-Academic teams honor some of the league’s finest examples of the consummate scholar-athlete.
The Pilots women’s soccer team led the way with eight honorees while seven came from the UP men’s soccer team. Cross country featured five women’s student-athletes receiving honors and four from the men’s team. Volleyball also had three student-athletes honored.
At the completion of each athletic season, the WCC selects an all-academic squad for each of the participating sponsored sports. To be considered, a student-athlete must earn at least a 3.20 cumulative grade point average, while also being a significant contributor to his or her team.
“The West Coast Conference prides itself on excellence both in the classroom and on the fields of play,” said WCC Commissioner Jamie Zaninovich. “We are proud to recognize these student-athletes, who exemplify the core values of our member institutions, for their outstanding accomplishments and for representing the ideals of the West Coast Conference.”
