Women’s Soccer Earns Academic Award (1/11/06)

BILLINGS, MT -   Grades matter to the Montana State-Billings women’s soccer team.  The team earned its fourth straight NSCAA academic honor posting a combined 3.38 grade point average for the 2004-2005 school year.  The Lady Jackets were picked from among all division I, II and III NCAA universities, as well as, NAIA institutions.

“An award like this is just as important as winning the conference championship.  Our student-athletes have always put academics ahead of athletics, so it is nice to see them rewarded for their efforts,” said Yellowjacket women’s head coach Don Trentham.  “As a coach, I am very proud of them.”
