Soccer Honored With Academic Award
Saturday, Jan. 2, 2003
The Ragin' Cajuns were one of 67 men's and 214 women's programs to earn the award by achieving a 3.0 GPA or higher as a team during the 2001-02 academic year. Louisiana-Lafayette, under third-year head coach Dave Poggi, earned a team GPA of 3.03.
The awards were presented at the College Coaches Luncheon during the 2003 NSCAA Convention, held Jan. 15-19 in Kansas City, Mo.
“Our goal at the beginning of the season is to have a minimum of a 3.0 GPA. Anything less is unacceptable,” said Poggi. “This award is indicative of the type of student-athletes who are in our program.”
The Ragin' Cajuns began off-season workouts this week with Strength and Conditioning Coach Brad Ohrt, as well as individual workouts with the coaching staff. The squad will begin its spring schedule in March.
