SIOUX FALLS – The Augustana soccer team has earned the NSCAA/adidas Women’s Team Academic Award for the 2006 season.
The Vikings posted a cumulative team grade point average of 3.23. The prerequisite to receive the award is a 3.00. It is the first time in the program’s history that the Vikings have received this award.
“I am extremely pleased and excited for the team to receive this type of award,” Augustana head coach Brandon Barkus said. “The women have always been strong academically and for the first time they are finally being recognized.
