Four Huskers Named to Academic All-Big 12 Team

Four Husker women’s tennis players were honored as Academic All-Big 12 recipients last week, including three first-team selections. Seniors Marianne Cicmanec and Ashley Finnegan and junior Wiveca Swarting earned first-team honors, while sophomore Stephanie Evans earned a second-team nomination.

 

First-team members consist of those who have maintained a 3.20 GPA or better throughout the year, while the second-team is those who have a GPA of 3.00-3.19.

 

The honor was the first for both Cicmanec and Finnegan, while Swarting picked up her second-straight first-team nomination. Evans also picked up her first nomination.

 

A total of 59 student-athletes from the men’s and women’s Big 12 tennis teams were named to the Academic All-Big 12 team.
