Forty-three University of Oklahoma student-athletes have been named to the 2022 Fall Academic All-Big 12 Team, the conference office announced Tuesday.
The team recognizes the academic accomplishments of student-athletes that participate in fall sports. OU's 43 honorees are comprised of student-athletes across four fall sports: cross country (eight), football (21), soccer (nine) and volleyball (five).
Nine of the 77 Big 12 student-athletes nominated with a 4.00 grade point average are from OU. The Sooners with perfect GPAs are Kelis Brown (soccer), Cailey England (soccer), Jordan Gledhill (cross country), Carsten Groos (football), Callie Kemohah (volleyball), Muriel Kroflin (soccer), Ella Pappas (soccer), Leonie Weber (soccer) and Elise Welch (cross country).
First-team members consist of those who have maintained a 3.20 or better GPA while the second team selections hold a 3.00 to 3.19 GPA.
To qualify, student-athletes must maintain a 3.00 GPA or higher, either cumulatively or over each of the two previous semesters, and must have participated in 20 percent of their team's scheduled contests. Freshmen and transfers are not eligible in their first year of academic residence. Senior student-athletes who have participated for a minimum of two years and meet all the criteria except percent of participation are also eligible.
