The academics on the team are actually pretty good with the Greyhounds having 4 NWCA Scholar All-Americans this season (Panko, Irwin, Fornal, Harris) and a 7th place National Academic standing for their starting lineup. These 4 individuals, plus the 10 or so Coach Yates had over the last 5 years is pretty good. There are just a few gpa's on the team that are probably bringing down the whole group. A lot of the guys do well in the classroom. Dr. Sue Willey just overlooks these things and instead focuses on the negative, only on the lower end guys.
Congrats to Josh Hardman!
