East Stroudsburg's Sean Roberts Garners PSAC Men's Outdoor Track and Field Champion Scholar Honor
LOCK HAVEN, Pa. --- East Stroudsburg sophomore Sean Roberts was named the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Men’s Outdoor Track and Field Champion Scholar, the league announced Thursday afternoon.
Roberts is the third Warrior to earn the award in the sport and first since 2017.
Despite the cancellation of the 2020 PSAC Spring Championships due to COVID-19, the league will honor Champion Scholars for all spring sports including: baseball, softball, outdoor track and field, women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s tennis.
The PSAC Champion Scholar Awards are modeled after the NCAA's Elite 90 award. The selection criteria for the Champion Scholar Awards is identical to that of the NCAA Elite 90 awards, which honor the student-athlete with the top GPA at each of the championship finals sites of the 90 NCAA championships across all three divisions – I, II, and III.
Each year, the Champion Scholar is awarded to the student-athlete with the highest GPA at all of the league’s 23 championship finals sites. Because the 2020 PSAC Spring Championships were cancelled, the PSAC opened the award to all student-athletes who met the criteria of: having completed a minimum 48 credit hours and those who are in at least their second year of competition.
The Saddle Brook, N.J., native and Saddle Brook graduate has accumulated 55 credits towards his political science and criminal justice degree while producing a spotless 4.0 grade point average.
