MONTEVALLO, Ala. --- The Gulf South Conference released its 2022 Spring Academic Awards on Tuesday and the Montevallo Falcons stood atop the list. Of the 1,198 student-athletes across nine sports to earn honor roll recognition, 166 were from Montevallo. Meanwhile, eight Falcons earned spots on the GSC All-Academic team.

The UM baseball team had three honorees, Sam Kuchinski, Reed Latimer and Jake Smallwood, while softball and women's lacrosse each added a pair. Sierra Eastwood and Taylor Robinson represented the Falcon softball team, while Anja Kuys and Lily McCormick were on the women's lacrosse list. It was the third time for Kuys. Men's track and field standout Joe Leventry rounded out the list for the Falcons.

In order to be named to the GSC All-Academic team, nominees must have a cumulative GPA of 3.20 or better their entire academic career at the institution and may not be freshmen or first-term transfer. The student-athlete must also be a significant contributor to the squad. Other factors include leadership, community service and extracurricular activities. Institutions are not allowed to vote for their own student-athletes. The number of student-athletes selected in each sport is determined by the number of positions normally involved in the playing of that sport. Ties are not broken.

To achieve honor roll status, a student-athlete must have a grade point average of 3.00 or better and have competed in outside competition at the time the award was announced. Five GSC schools had a 100 or more student-athletes named to the honor roll — Montevallo (166), Lee (136), Alabama Huntsville (118), Mississippi College (106) and Shorter (101).

Additional GSC Notes:

• Seventy-seven percent of honor roll names had a 3.3 GPA or better, which included 247 student-athletes that between 3.5-3.69, 366 between 3.7-3.99, and 109 that posted a 4.0.
• Baseball had the most student-athletes recognized with 306, followed by softball (195), women's track& field (132), women's lacrosse (129), and men's track & field (127).
• Twenty All-Academic team selections returned by 2020-21 ... West Florida's Juan Cabrera earned his fifth selection, while 10 other student-athletes received their third (Darian Blanton, Lee; Cara Brown, UAH; Katie Gerber, UAH; Taylor Greenberg, YHC; Zach Hancock, UAH; Anja Kuys, UM; Irene Recuenco, UWF; Shayna Ryan, Lee; Hugo Stroppiana, DSU, Ronja Taipale, UWF).
