Jan. 23, 2008
Three members of the 2007 Wayne State women's cross country team were named to the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) All-Academic team. The Warriors placed second at both the league championship and NCAA Great Lakes Regional, while finishing 14th at the NCAA Championship.
To be eligible for GLIAC All-Academic status, a student athlete must have: a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or greater (on a 4.0 scale); must be a starter or key reserve; and must not be a freshman or first-year transfer.
Selected to the GLIAC All-Academic team were senior Kara Kessler (Ionia, Mich.), and junior Rachelle Malette (Windsor, Ont./Holy Names) and graduate student Tracy Egnatuk (Albion, Mich.).
Kessler was honored for the third time in her career. Malette, an All-American after placing fifth at the NCAA Championship meet, is a two-time all-academic selection, while Egnatuk was eligible for the first time this season after transferring from Michigan.
