2009 WINTER/SPRING ALL-ACADEMIC HONORS ANNOUNCED
The Great West Conference has awarded Academic All-Conference honors since the league began with just football members in 2004, but in this first year as an all-sport league, those individuals who compete in league-sponsored sports are going to be added to the list, commissioner Ed Grom said as winter/spring sport honorees are released today. Student-athletes in the sports of basketball, indoor and outdoor track and field, golf, women's tennis, baseball and softball are being announced. Leading the way on the 2009 Spring All-Academic Team are several all-Academic honorees who also captured major awards in their respective sport championships this year in the Great West.

On the mound, Utah Valley's Justin Smith picked up the lone Wolverine victory for the weekend, a five-hitter, to earn Pitcher of the Week. (more)
