NELSONVILLE—Even with all games and matches canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic, the Hocking College Athletic Department set a record in the recently ended autumn 2020 semester.

A record forty-two of the two-year college’s student-athletes achieved All-Academic status — the most in the five-year history of athletics at Hocking College. To be an all-academic student-athlete, students must have a cumulative GPA of 3.3 or higher in the autumn 2020 semester.

“We are proud of this list of 42 student-athletes who have been given All-Academic status,” Craig Moore, assistant athletic director, said. “Not only is this a record for our department, but it’s a credit to the hard work of all our student-athletes and coaches, faculty and staff throughout the college. We are looking forward to the growth and continued successes of the department and student-athletes.”
