June 21, 2016 | Men's Golf
CENTER VALLEY, Pa. – Patriot League schools combined to place 35 student-athletes on the Men's Golf Academic Honor Roll announced on Tuesday, including three Army West Point golfers in Justin Pagila, Dean Sakata and Nick Turner.
Each of the five members of the Men's Golf Academic All-Patriot League Team also made the Honor Roll. Loyola's Connor Flach, the 2016 Corvias Patriot League Men's Golf Scholar-Athlete of the Year, was one of three student-athletes with a 4.00 grade-point average in the spring semester with Colgate's Ian Lynch and Navy's Connor Tallman also hitting the mark. Bucknell's Nick Geissler and Navy's David Won made the Academic Honor Roll for a fourth consecutive season
To be eligible for the Patriot League Winter/Spring Academic Honor Roll, a student-athlete must earn a 3.20 grade-point average in the spring semester and participate in one of the Patriot League's winter or spring championship sports.
"Today's Scholar-Athletes, Tomorrow's Leaders" – The Patriot League continually demonstrates that student-athletes can excel at both academics and athletics without sacrificing its high standards. The Patriot League's athletic success is achieved while its member institutions remain committed to its founding principle of admitting and graduating student-athletes that are academically representative of their class. Participation in athletics at Patriot League institutions is viewed as an important component of a well-rounded education.
