BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – With another successful athletics season in the rearview mirror, more academic honors keep coming for Ole Miss student-athletes, as 76 Rebels were named to the 2015 Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll announced by SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey, Tuesday.
A total of 1,191 student-athletes were named to the 2015 Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll. The 2015 Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2014 summer, 2014 fall and 2015 spring terms.
While earning their 13th postseason appearance under head coach Mike Bianco, 14 members of the diamond Rebels made the SEC Academic Honor Roll, including three-time honoree Scott Weathersby, who graduated last month, was drafted and signed with the Houston Astros.
Men’s and women’s track and field combined for 31 on the honor roll, including three-time honoree Jonathan Redding, who graduated last month with a perfect 4.0 grade point average in his Ole Miss career.
Women’s tennis placed six of seven eligible student-athletes on the honor roll, including three-time honorees and graduates Julia Jones, Erin Stephens and Iris Verboven. Men’s tennis had four make the honor roll, including three-time honoree William Kallberg, who posted a perfect 4.0 GPA.
Nine softball players made the honor roll, including three-time honorees Allison Brown and Lauren Lindsey.
