"Our mission in athletics at Carson-Newman is to glorify Christ through comprehensive excellence - spiritually, academically, athletically and socially," Carson-Newman Vice President for Athletics Matt Pope said. "Academic success is something we stress in our program and I am so happy that 73 of our student athletes are receiving the D2 ADA Academic Achievement Award. A grade-point-average is a very personal and rewarding achievement; that is something they have earned in the classroom and we could not be more proud of each of them."
In total, there were 15,214 student-athletes from 200 institutions recognized for the 2019-20 Academic Achievement Awards. These numbers shattered the records for highest number of participating institutions and the largest number of student-athletes being nominated since the award program's inception
