As we wind down the 2023-2024 academic year and enter graduation season, I find myself thinking about the depth of character and resilience it takes to be a student-athlete. While most people just think about finishing the semester, our student-athletes often take a more proactive approach and remind themselves to FINISH STRONG. There is no coasting in being an elite collegiate athlete at LSU. So itβs always a pleasure to acknowledge our student-athletes who find a way to excel in the face of adversity. These six student-athletes are running, swimming, and competing when the stakes are high and the energy is required to make a final statement in the classroom!
The LSU Cox Communications Academic Center for Student-Athletes (CCACSA) recognizes student-athletes for their scholastic and community achievements each month. Student-athletes are chosen based on their commitment to academic success and for their devotion to volunteerism and service to the community.
