BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Texas A&M was represented by a school record 84 student-athletes on the 2022-23 First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll, announced by SEC commissioner Greg Sankey on Friday.

The 2022-23 First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll includes student-athletes from 15 different sports. The Aggies totaled 318 student-athletes during the 2022-23 academic year on the Fall, Winter, Spring and First-Year Honor Rolls.

"Our student-athletes exhibit a competitive nature that is evident in their continued accomplishments in athletics and academia," Associate Athletics Director of Academic Services Dr. Dan Childs said. "We are eager to watch their continued success and assist them in doing so."

Baseball led all Aggie sports with 19 first-year academic honor roll selections. The previous record was established during the 2019-20 academic year when A&M totaled 59 student-athletes on the first-year honor roll.

The following criteria was followed:
(1) A student-athlete must have a grade point average of 3.00 or above for either the preceding academic year (two semesters or three quarters) or have a cumulative grade point average of 3.00 or above at the nominating institution.
(2) If a student-athlete attends summer school, his/her grade point average during the summer academic term must be included in the calculation used to determine eligibility for the Academic Honor Roll.
(3) Student-athletes eligible for the Honor Roll include those receiving an athletics scholarship, recipients of an athletics award (i.e., letter winner), and non-scholarship student-athletes who have been on a varsity team for two seasons.
(4) Prior to being nominated, a student-athlete must have successfully completed 24 semester or 36 quarter hours of non-remedial academic credit toward a baccalaureate degree at the nominating institution.
(5) The student-athlete must have been a member of a varsity team for the sport's entire NCAA Championship segment.
