Winn Earns All-Academic

May 21, 2007

Southwestern Oklahoma State University baseball player Gabe Winn was one of nine student-athletes selected to the Lone Star Conference North Division All-Academic team released last week by the league office.

Winn, a sophomore pre-med major from Sayre, has maintained a 4.00 GPA through two years of coursework at SWOSU. Winn has been one of SWOSU’s primary starting pitchers during the year in which he made 10 starts and worked a total of 40 innings. He finished the year with a 1-6 record and a 10.04 ERA.

To be eligible for LSC academic honors, student-athletes must carry at least a 3.20 grade point average and have reached sophomore status both athletically and academically. The Academic Player-of-Year award and All-Academic Team are selected from the list of academically qualified players, with the league’s sports information directors voting on the basis of both academic and athletic achievement.

All qualifying student-athletes not selected for the All-Academic Team are then named to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll.

One other SWOSU player, Kole Kennedy, a junior pitcher from Calumet, made the Commissioner’s Honor Roll.
