Coach Herron of LC said: "I am very proud of the work our
team has done in the classroom. This marks the second year in a
row that both teams have been Academic All-Americans. It is a
trend that I hope will continue for a long time. It goes to show
that a student or team can be both successful in the classroom
and in their sport. It just requires more energy and effort."
