NATIONAL STUDENT-ATHLETE DAY

National Student-Athlete Day was established 19 years ago by the Center for the Study of Sport in Society at Northeastern University and the National Consortium for Academics and Sports (NCAS). The event was established to encourage the recognition of the accomplishments of student-athletes in the classroom, on the playing field and in their communities. The following individuals were honored during the National Student Athlete Day luncheon on April 7, 2006 in recognition of their having achieved the highest grade point averages for their respective teams during the Fall 2005 semester.
