The member institution with the highest team GPA in each sport was named the sport&#8217;s Academic Champion and earned five (5) points toward the overall award. Each sport&#8217;s runner-up picked up four (4) points and third-place three (3) points toward the overall award. Any program with a Team GPA of 2.00 and above earned one (1) point. Points for each member institution were totaled by gender and then divided by that institution&#8217;s number of counter programs in that gender to arrive at the comparison value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are all of the sport academic champions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Men&#8217;s Sport<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Academic Champion<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>GPA<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Baseball&nbsp;<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.331<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Basketball<\/td><td>St. Edward&#8217;s<\/td><td>3.423<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Cross Country<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.641<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>Football<\/em><\/td><td><em>Eastern New Mexico<\/em><\/td><td><em>2.767<\/em><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Golf<\/td><td>West Texas A&amp;M<\/td><td>3.528<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Indoor T&amp;F<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.451<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Outdoor T&amp;F<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.451<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Soccer<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.590<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Men&#8217;s Tennis<\/td><td>St. Mary&#8217;s<\/td><td>3.623<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Women&#8217;s Sport<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Academic Champion<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>GPA<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Basketball&nbsp;<\/td><td>Lubbock Christian<\/td><td>3.783<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Cross Country<\/td><td>Western New Mexico<\/td><td>3.789<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Golf<\/td><td>St. Mary&#8217;s<\/td><td>3.873<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Soccer<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.692<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Softball<\/td><td>Angelo State<\/td><td>3.662<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Indoor T&amp;F<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.455<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Outdoor T&amp;F<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.455<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Volleyball<\/td><td>Texas Woman&#8217;s<\/td><td>3.826<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Women&#8217;s Tennis<\/td><td>UT Tyler<\/td><td>3.904<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ENMU Athletics Nicole Holcomb RICHARDSON, Texas &#8211;&nbsp;The Lone Star Conference Academic Excellence Award presented by Balfour was announced Thursday morning, along with the individual sport academic<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1759,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,460,23],"tags":[465,462],"class_list":["post-1758","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-division-ii","category-eastern-new-mexico","category-top-news","tag-eastern-new-mexico","tag-lsc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1758","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1758"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1758\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1760,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1758\/revisions\/1760"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1759"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1758"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1758"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1758"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
