ST. LOUIS – A program-high five Illinois State men's tennis players – Andreas Boers, Jakub Eisner, Christoffer Greve, Dylan Steffens and Rolando Torrellas – earned spots on the 11-player 2016 Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete Team, the league office announced Tuesday.
ISU's five MVC Scholar-Athlete Team honorees – more than any other Valley program – passed the previous team high of three selections in 2014 and 2015. The Redbird men's tennis squad earned a combined grade-point average (GPA) of 3.15 during the fall semester, which marked the highest GPA among Illinois State men's programs.
