RB Devontae Booker heads Utah’s Pac-12-high 23 academic honorees

Devontae Booker is averaging 5.2 yards per carry, 7.6 yards per reception, and about an 89 per class.

It was announced Monday that the American River College transfer was selected to the Pac-12 All-Academic team. After sitting out last season because he failed to qualify, Booker has amassed a 3.38 grade point average studying sociology in his time at the U.

To be eligible for selection to the All-Academic first team, second team, or honorable mention, a player required a 3.0 and an appearance in 50 percent of his team's games. Twenty-three Utes were honored in all, the most of any Pac-12 team (Stanford was second, with 18).
