Jessica Ogunnorin, academic & athletic excellence!

Congratulations to our own Jessica Ogunnorin (a 2010 graduate of ACS Athens) !!

Jessica, now a student at UC Riverside was selected to the Academic All-Big West Conference Team (for basketball).

To be eligible for the All-Academic team (one of only 239 student-athletes, from nine member institutions), student-athletes have to maintain a 3.2 cumulative grade point average, complete one full year at the member institution prior to the season for which the award is being received (at least a sophomore academically) and competed in at least 50 percent of their team's contests.

An impressive achievement indeed. We wish her all the best on and off the courts !
