A record 50 Wolf Pack fall student-athletes earned Academic All-Mountain West honors, which were announced by the conference Thursday.
The number was up 12 from the total of 38 student-athletes honored for the same achievement last year.
In order to qualify for academic all-conference honors, student-athletes must have completed at least one academic semester/quarter at the member institution, have a cumulative grade-point-average, at the member institution, of 3.0 or better, and competed in 50 percent of the team’s varsity contests during the fall season.
The Nevada contingent was part of a league-record 571 student-athletes within the conference who were named to the team for the fall season, which consists of football, volleyball, women’s soccer and cross country.
