CARROLLTON, Ga. – As the calendar flips to 2021, the UWG Department of Athletics announced its academic achievements for the Fall 2020 semester, including the recipients of the Wolves Student-Athlete GPA Honor Roll.
A record number of 237 student-athletes were named to the Wolves Student-Athlete GPA Honor Roll which recognizes those with a term GPA of 3.0 or higher. Platinum Level recipients had a term GPA of 4.0 while Gold consists of those with a GPA of 3.50-3.99.
