Congratulations to both players! Wow, Nana is POY, D-POY, First Team All-PL, and PL All-Academic Team. Kimbal is Third Team All-PL and PL All-Academic Team. They are hauling in the hardware!

I know some parents that are very proud.

GO BISON!
New season, new team, new dream . . .

It's almost impossible to select this sort of team - since the league doesn't know how difficult various majors are. Thus there is a 3.2 GPA requirement no matter what the major. Having said that, I think Zach Thomas might have the top academic record, doing well as a biomedical engineer.

Not to knock Nana, but the work load for a history major is a bit different than for a biomed engineer.

The Bison dominate ON THE COURT and IN THE CLASSROOM!

137, without looking it up, can you name at least 7 of the 10 Bison to win Scholar-Athlete of the Year? (This might be easy since you recently researched who won each year.)
New season, new team, new dream . . .

Actually there are only six individuals due to players winning it more than once:

Paul Olkowski
Tom Welch
Valter Karavanic (2)
Dan Blankenship (2)
Chris McNaughton (3)
Mike Muscala
