Fort Hays State Tennis will have all seven of its players named to the MIAA Academic Honor Roll in 2014-15. The initial list for returning athletes in women’s tennis was released by the conference office on Friday (May 8). Six of the seven players on the team earn the honor, while the seventh will be honored on the newcomer list this summer. To achieve honor roll status, a student-athlete must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 and have at least two terms of attendance at the certifying member institution, excluding summer terms.
Earning the honors for the 2014-15 season are Camille Caron-Bedard (3.75, Art), Raven Dick (3.25, Communications), Katie Hipp (3.87, Speech-Language Pathology), Michelle Miller (4.0, Elementary Education), Brittney Ricci (3.5, Nursing), and Reinette Strydom (4.0, Medical Diagnostic Imaging). In the coming months, freshman Jessica Johnson will also be honored as she carried a perfect GPA through the Fall semester.
Brittney Ricci also earned the MIAA Scholar-Athlete Honor, given to those who have a cumulative grade point average of 3.50 and earn All-MIAA honors. Ricci was an All-MIAA Honorable Mention selection at No. 2 singles for the 2014-15 season.
