Mansfield, Mass. – The Adelphi University Department of Athletics has landed at least 80 percent of its student-athlete population on the Northeast-10 Conference Academic Honor Roll, it was released today, marking the sixth straight semester of the honor.
The Panthers also led the entire NE10 in highest percentage, with 84% of its athletes receiving recognition. For a full list of Adelphi honorees, please see the PDF above.
As a model of consistency, the Panthers have finished in the top-3 in that category every semester, since joining the NE10 in the fall of 2009.
Out of 337 athletes to make the grade, 56 were included in the category of Academic Excellence for achieving a perfect 4.0 grade-point average in the spring 2022 semester. Majority of the group was responsible for a 3.50-3.99, accounting for 182 of the 337.
Bentley, who had the highest total number of athletes on the list, was second in highest percentage (82) and followed closely by Pace who rounds out the top-three with 78% of athletes earning academic honor roll recognition. Adelphi also appeared in the top three for total number, falling just three short of Assumption, who had 340.
For the 2021-22 school year, Adelphi earned a runner-up finish in the race for the 2021-22 NE10 Presidents’ Cup. Adelphi found itself in the middle of the 14-team pack through the fall and winter seasons, but a conference-headlining 70-point spring nearly catapulted the Brown and Gold to the top of the table.
The Panthers, despite garnering a league-high 85 percent of their available points in the spring, missed out on overtaking SNHU for the Cup by a margin of just ten points (171.5-161.5).
As the NE10 Presidents’ Cup only takes regular-season finishes into account, Adelphi made up the deficit on the heels of four of its programs winning an NE10 regular-season title.
