Tuesday, July 8, 2008 | Women's Golf
Freshman Jessica Yadloczky (Casselberry, Fla.) was named to the 2008 SEC Freshman Honor Roll, announced by the league on Tuesday. The Social & Behavioral Sciences major was one of 66 University of Florida student-athletes to be named to the SEC Freshman Honor Roll, giving Florida a total of 253 student-athletes that were named to a SEC Academic Honor Roll in 2007-08. Florida placed 187 on the SEC Academic Honor Rolls (93 on the Spring list, 48/Winter, 46/Fall) and 66 on the Freshman Honor Roll. That total is second only to South Carolina's total of 266 honorees.
Yadloczky is coming off an impressive freshman season, garnering first-team All-SEC and All-Freshman honors, as well as earning the inaugural Southeastern Conference Sportsmanship Award.
The University of Florida and the University of South Carolina shared the top of the list with 66 freshmen student-athletes on each academic roster. Next in line were the University of Alabama (56) and the University of Kentucky (52).
Each student-athlete must 1) have a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or above at the nominating institution; 2) be on scholarship or a letter
winner; 3) have completed 24 semester hours of non-remedial credit at the nominating institution; and 4) have been a member of the varsity
team for the sport's entire NCAA Championship segment.
The 2008 SEC Freshmen Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2007-08 academic calendar.
