Most Academic Awards in Gator Tennis History!

The tennis team had a banner year for academic awards. In addition to Pat Cole winning the COSIDA All District Award, nine players were honored with the ITA Scholar Athlete Award--which requires at least a 3.5 GPA for the year. This is the largest number we have ever had win this award. Both teams also won the ITA All Academic Team Award (team avg. GPA above a 3.2 for the year). This is now the third year in a row that the men have won the Team Award and it is the 4th time in the past 8 years for the women. Both teams will be celebrating this fall with a team outing. The ITA doesn't officially announce the awards until later in the summer so check our website in July/August for the official press release. The ITA Scholar Athlete Award winners are: Pat Cole, Alex Hurtuk, Andrea Brush, Laura Steele, Frank Mosconi, Haley Meekhof, Tyler Triolo, Michaela Thompson, and Abby Lange. Congratulations to all our players for their tremendous year in the classroom!
