INDIANA, Pa. - For the fifth straight year, the IUP Athletic Department posted a new school record as 271 student-athletes earned Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) scholar-athlete distinction for the 2020-21 academic year.
The 271 scholar-athletes shattered the previous mark of 208 in 2019-20. It's the eighth-highest mark in the 18-team league.
The 271 honorees represent more than 64 percent of IUP's 420 total student-athletes, well above the PSAC-wide average of 55 percent.
The PSAC also set a new conference record of 4,163 scholar-athletes for 2020-21, 400 more than last year's 3,763. It marked 55 percent of the PSAC student-athlete population. Both numbers break last year's records of 50 percent and 3,763. The PSAC has now registered at least a 30 percent rate for 13 consecutive years. The total number of honorees has increased each year since the 2006-07 academic year.
In order to be eligible, the 2020-21 student-athletes must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.25 upon completion of the academic year.
