February 08, 2017 | Athletics
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – A total of 61 Mississippi State student-athletes were named to the 2016 Fall Southeastern Conference Academic Honor Roll, SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey announced Wednesday.
The 2016 Fall SEC Academic Honor Roll includes the sports of cross country, football, soccer and volleyball. It is based on grades from the 2016 spring, summer and fall semesters.
The Bulldog football team led the way with 31 student-athletes on the honor roll, representing the squad's most on record. That tally was fifth-best among football programs in the league.
Thirteen regular starters from the 2016 football team were on the honor roll, including quarterback Nick Fitzgerald, wide receiver Fred Ross, defensive lineman Nelson Adams, snapper Hunter Bradley, linebacker Richie Brown, offensive lineman Devon Desper, safety Kivon Coman, kicker Westin Graves, running back Brandon Holloway, defensive end A.J. Jefferson, safety Mark McLaurin, offensive lineman Martinas Rankin and offensive lineman Justin Senior.
Soccer led all-female sports by placing 16 student-athletes to the 2016 SEC Academic Honor Roll. Over the 2016 fall semester the Bulldog soccer team posted its highest GPA ever with a 3.44 to go along with a 3.34 from the spring. Additionally, the 2016 squad also improved on last year's 14 total student-athletes on the SEC Fall Honor Roll.
Eight runners from the Bulldog cross country team that finished a program-best 15th in the nation in the fall were recognized as a part of the list, including senior and two-time All-American Rhianwedd Price, and members of the South Region all-region team in Shannon Fair, Ffion Price, Antonia Hehr and Mia Meydrich.
Six members of the 2016 Bulldog volleyball squad earned a spot on the list, including a trio of seniors. Leading the way is Evie Grace Singleton, who finished the year leading the SEC and standing seventh nationally in aces (54). She also capped her senior year with 499 kills, second-most in the league and in MSU volleyball history.
Joining her is fellow seniors Jazmyne Johnson and Chelsea Duhs. Johnson finished out her career with 136 total blocks in 2016, finishing fourth in MSU single-season history and making her the first Bulldog since 2011 to record 100 blocks in a campaign. Duhs, who finished out a solid four-year career with the Maroon and White, earned her undergraduate degree in the spring of 2016 and is currently pursuing her Masters in Business Administration.
The SEC First-Year Honor Roll, which recognizes true freshmen, will be announced later this spring.
