Miller Named to LSC All-Academic Team

THACKERVILLE, Okla. --- Northeastern State's Katie Miller was named to the Lone Star Conference All-Academic Team as conference officials made the announcement at the championship banquet.

 

Miller, a junior from Turpin, earned her first selection to the All-Academic Team ater being named to the Commissioner's Honor Roll and All-Conference Honorable Mention honors in 2008.  She has been a solid player for the RiverHawks this season with her best showing coming at the Bubba Watson Invitational with a second place finish.  Miller has posted three top-20 finishes for the RiverHawks this season.

 

Fellow teammates Shaunda Petree, Liz Cagle and Julie Curran were named to the Commissioner's Honor Roll.

 

To be eligible for LSC academic honors, student-athletes must carry at least a 3.20 grade point average and be at least a sophomore, both academically and athletically. 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.
