Four players on the Florida A&M University softball
team, which won its fourth consecutive MEAC title this year, made the
team. They were Alexis Day, Whitney
Farris, Kenya Pereira, and Tahlia Snider.
FAMU Director of Athletics Milton Overton Jr. said he was
pleased with the players who garnered the conference honor.
MEAC sophomore, junior and senior student-athletes as well
as transfer student-athletes who have been in residence at the institution for
at least one year, are eligible for All-Academic accolades.
“On behalf of the conference, I commend our softball
student-athletes who have maintained a 3.0 or better grade point average during
this academic school year,” said MEAC Commissioner Dennis E. Thomas. “I would
also like to acknowledge the efforts of the institutional and athletic academic
support staff, coaches and parents who all played a vital role in the success
of student-athletes both on the field and in the classroom.”
