Lancers honour Academic All-Canadians

A record number of Lancer student-athletes joined the ranks of Academic All-Canadians in 2013-14, attendees heard at a breakfast in their honour Wednesday.

The award requires recipients to achieve a minimum grade-point average of 80 percent during full-time study while competing in a varsity sport: 67 Lancers made the grade last year.

“The Academic All-Canadian is the highest form of honour bestowed by Canadian Interuniversity Sport,” says acting provost Bob Orr, who hosted Wednesday’s breakfast. “The accomplishment of excellence in both academics and athletics epitomizes the pinnacle of achievement in university athletic competition.”
