STARKVILLE, MS – The 2010-2011 Chowan University Softball team had the seventh highest team GPA in all of Division II last year. The National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA), released their Top Ten All-Academic teams on Wednesday, and the Hawks came in seventh place with a 3.435 GPA.

“This recognition embodies the spirit of NCAA DII athletics. Our student-athletes make a commitment to academics and balance a winning tradition on the field,” said Head Coach Amanda Balduf. “I am so honored and privileged to work with women who take pride in excelling in the classroom. This program has high standards on and off the field. This is a true picture of the quality of student-athlete we recruit in our program. I am beyond proud this team for believing in the process and taking this program to new heights.”

Chowan placed eight team members on the Academic All-American team last year. To be recognized for this honor, student-athletes must have a 3.6 GPA.
