NEW ORLEANS – The U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association announced earlier this week that Joe Arthur and Michelle Joyce were named 2021 USTFCCCA All-Academic Athletes.
To qualify for the All-Academic award, the Ceres, South Africa natives needed to maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.25 on a 4.0 scale and finish in the top-25 (or 10 percent) at the NCAA Regional Championships or as an All-American at the NCAA Championships.
Arthur led the Owls with a 13th place finish out of 174 runners in the Mid-Atlantic Regionals back in November.
