EAST LANSING, Mich. – The Big Ten Conference announced the Academic All-Big Ten honorees for the 2020 spring sports season on Wednesday. In all, 133 Michigan State student-athletes were honored over MSU's nine spring sports. MSU had 12 student-athletes with a perfect 4.0 GPA, most of any school in the Big Ten.
To be eligible for Academic All-Big Ten selection, students must be on a varsity team, as verified by being on the official squad list as of March 12 for spring sports, who have been enrolled full time at the institution for a minimum of 12 months and carry a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or higher.
Carlyn Arteaga (women's track and field), Luke Beauchamp (men's track and field), Sarah Flowney (women's rowing), Carson Gates (men's tennis), John Gove (men's track and field), Alea Hahn (women's rowing), Melanie Helder (women's track and field), Parker Jamieson (men's golf), Annika Linzmeier (women's track and field), Joseph Riordan (men's track and field), Caleb Sleeman (baseball) and Caroline Szabo (women's tennis) were all recognized with a 4.0 GPA.
The conference office will also present the Distinguished Scholar Award in July. Students eligible for the Distinguished Scholar Award must be a recipient of Academic All-Big Ten Recognition in the previous academic year, must have been enrolled full time at the institution for the entire previous academic year (two semesters or three quarters) and earned a minimum GPA of 3.70 or better during the previous academic year (excluding any summer grades).
