Carolina Athletics recognized and celebrated student-athlete academic success at its annual Scholar-Athlete Awards luncheon, held on May 2. More than 200 Tar Heels were honored for their outstanding achievement during the Spring 2017 and Fall 2017 semesters.
At the George Watts Hill Alumni Center, the fifth-annual event included messages from Chancellor Carol Folt, who celebrated the students' determination and grit, and Provost Bob Blouin, who thanked them for the way they represent UNC athletically and academically.
The highlight of each year's event is the recognition of the Top 10 Scholar-Athletes, the five men and five women with the highest grade point averages among those graduating in 2018.
