CHICAGO (July 30, 2018) – Two hundred and eight Loyola University Chicago student-athletes have been honored by the Missouri Valley Conference with today's announcement of the 2017-18 MVC Academic Awards.
 
Leading the list of honorees is a quartet of exceptional student-athletes who received the President's Council Academic Award. Stephen Hubona (track and field), Ricky Gevis (men's volleyball), Katie Salmon (women's basketball) and Emily Lange (women's soccer) were recognized for having at least a 3.80 grade-point average through the Spring 2018 semester, participating in athletics a minimum of two years and being within 18 hours of graduation.
 
A total of 49 Ramblers are recipients of the Commissioner's Academic Excellence Award, which requires student-athletes to have a minimum 3.50 GPA for the previous two semesters, a minimum 3.20 cumulative GPA and participation in athletics.
 
Loyola also placed 155 student-athletes on the MVC Honor Roll for posting a minimum 3.20 GPA for a specified term (Fall 2017/Spring 2018), being a member of an athletics team, and having a minimum of 12 hours of enrollment during the fall or spring semesters.
 
In addition to these individual recognitions from the Missouri Valley Conference, Loyola student-athletes have scored high marks, posting the highest Graduation Success Rate (GSR) in the nation, at 99 percent.
