EVANSVILLE, Ind.- University of Southern Indiana student-athletes excelled in the classroom during the 2024-25 academic year. USI earned 183 Ohio Valley Conference Commissioners Honor Roll awards by 154 Screaming Eagles, of which 29 student athletes earned multiple honors. USI Baseball led the flock with 20 athletes listed.
The 183 awards were a three-year high for the Screaming Eagles in the OVC and ranked fourth in the league for total number of awards.
A prestigious OVC Commissioners Honor Roll spot is earned by a student-athlete achieving a 3.25 Grade Point Average (GPA), completing an NCAA-sponsored competitive season, and participating in enough contests to use a year of eligibility.
The OVC, as a conference, had a record 1,792 honorees, breaking the previous record of 1,718 set during the 2020-21 academic year.
To be listed, recipients must have achieved at least a 3.25 grade point average, have been eligible and on the team throughout the competitive season in their chosen NCAA-sponsored sport(s), and have used a season of competition.
Those numbers included 89 student-athletes who compete in non-OVC championship sports that do not compete in another conference (i.e., Southeast Missouri gymnastics, UT Martin equestrian) and 204 student-athletes who were recipients in multiple sports (and counted just once in the ?nal total).
Lindenwood had the most selections to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll (224), followed by Southeast Missouri (202) and Eastern Illinois (190). The sport of baseball had the most honorees league-wide (213), women’s track and ? eld (207), and softball (175).
The 154 USI student athletes tied the University of Tennessee at Martin for fourth in the OVC. Lindenwood University repeated last year’s academic performance by leading the OVC with 243 awarded athletes.
