The Midwest Conference released the list of 2017-18 Academic All-MWC honorees on Friday and Lake Forest College surpassed last year's record number of honorees with 131.
The criteria to become an Academic All-MWC selection includes a minimum grade point average of 3.33, which is calculated only in the awarded academic year. Student-athletes who letter in any MWC sport are eligible for the award.
The Forester men's and women's hockey teams had 23 players combined named to the Northern Collegiate Hockey Association All-Academic Teams in March and the College's 154 league academic awards this year are the most in school history, 22 more than the previous record set last year.
Three Foresters - softball player Kat Beall, football player Miko Delacruz, and women's basketball player Kara Norvet - earned the award for the fourth consecutive year. They were among the 38 seniors at the College who finished off their fourth year with a GPA of as least 3.33.
Football had the most selections of any of the College's teams with 19, followed closely by a program record-setting 17 from both women's soccer and women's cross country, as well as 14 each from men's soccer and softball. Men's swimming and diving also set a team record with nine honorees, as did both golf teams with five apiece. Women's basketball finished with eight honorees, men's basketball and women's swimming and diving six each, volleyball four, the women's tennis and men's cross country three each, and men's tennis two.
"Our Foresters continue to raise the bar with their record-setting performances in both athletic competition and the classroom," began Lake Forest Director of Athletics Jackie Slaats. "I could not be more proud of the way student-athletes at the College consistently enhance our tradition of academic and athletic excellence."
