Faith Thompson Named Academic All-American
Thompson was one of 15 student-athletes chosen to the first team, and she is the first-ever female Academic All-American in UB's history. Thompson is UB's second Academic All-American selection in 2004-05 and the third Academic All-American selection in UB's Division I history. Men's basketball player Turner Battle (Kernersville, NC/East Forsyth) earned Academic All-America Second Team honors this past March, and former football player Dan Poulsen was an Academic All-American in 1998.
Thompson had a 3.973 grade point average as an undergraduate while earning a degree in
psychology, and she has a perfect 4.0 GPA in her first year working towards a master's degree in
school counseling. She was the recipient of the 2004-05 SUNY Chancellor's Scholar-Athlete Award
for women's track and field and an Academic All-MAC selection in both indoor and outdoor track.
Thompson was a three-time CoSIDA Academic All-District I honoree, earning first-team honors in 2002-03
and 2004-05 and second-team honors in 2001-02. She advanced to this year's national ballot after
being named to the Academic All-District I First Team earlier in June, along with teammate
Jenny Koeppel (Amherst, NY/Amherst). |
