The George Mason Provost Scholar Athletes were honored at a reception recently on campus and recognized at a men's basketball game for their outstanding academic achievements. George Mason Provost Emeritus Dr. Peter Stearns, who created the Provost Scholar Athlete Award in 2009, congratulated this year's recipients at a reception.
In its 10th year, the award recognizes the student-athletes who have earned at least 38 credit hours at Mason and have achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.75 or better.
Twelve sports were represented along with the cheerleading and dance teams. There were 14 student-athletes who have received the award before. Eleven student-athletes have been named Provost Scholar Athletes three times – Michael Kovach (Golf), Giuliano Buzoianu, and Daniel Gutierrez (men's tennis), Nicole Van Oort (women's rowing), Ashley Mennes (women's volleyball), Kira Greer, Lindsey Tangeman and Hannah Warpinski (lacrosse), Abigail Downey (women's soccer), and Suzanne Abribat and Sharon Dorsey (women's track and field).
