BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - University of Montevallo women's soccer student athlete Tylor Ring was awarded with the Gulf South Conference Degree Completion Grant, the conference office announced Tuesday.

"The Gulf South Conference strives to Compete, Graduate, Impact," said GSC Commissioner Matt Wilson. "These degree completion grants reflect our desire for student-athletes to reach their educational goals, especially graduation. This group of award recipients represents the best part of the GSC, and that is our people. I am excited for them and thankful to be able to deploy resources from the NCAA and AEB Wealth Management Group of Raymond James to make this a reality."

Ring earned legend status at Montevallo for her game winning goal against Lee in GSC Championship and was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player.  The Elementary Education major posted a 3.74 grade-point-average and was named to the GSC Fall Academic Honor Roll from 2017-19.  She was also selected to the Peach Belt Conference Presidential Honor Roll in 2016 before UM switched back to the GSC.

The degree completion grants are an integral part of the league's most recent strategic plan and are made possible through funding from the NCAA Foundation of the Future program and generous support from A-E-B Wealth Management Group of Raymond James.

"We are so honored and proud to continuously support The Gulf South Conference," said Mirela Elliott of AEB Wealth Management Group of Raymond Janes. "Over the years we have developed some great relationships and have seen all of the students flourish.  We are truly proud to have been part of this."
