HUNTINGTON, W.Va- MaryAnn Adebayo has been recognized as a 2022 USTFCCCA Women's All-Academic Athlete for Marshall Track & Field.
To be eligible, an athlete must be in the top 96 in the country in indoor track, or qualify for any round of the NCAA outdoor championships and have a 3.25 or higher GPA. Adebayo qualified, having a cumulative 3.27 GPA in Biological Science with minors in Chemistry and Spanish.
Marshall University's Assistant Director of Academics, Ryan Signorino oversees Adebayo and Marshall Track & Field. Signorino acknowledges the work Adebayo and the team as a whole put in last season.Â
"MaryAnn is a leader in competition and in the classroom," Signorino said. "This award is a huge honor and really exemplifies the work she has put in during her time at Marshall. I think the throwing events can sometimes be overshadowed in track & field, so it's great for her to get recognition as an exemplary student-athlete and one of the top athletes in the NCAA in the weight throw. She'll be right near the top of the Sun Belt in the event this coming season, and it will be exciting to see her compete in her final season."
