LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- A record number of student-athletes were named to the University of Louisville Athletic Director's Honor Roll for the fall semester of 2002. Tom Jurich, U of L athletic director, named 278 athletes, including managers, trainers and spirit groups that earned a 3.0 grade point average or better for the first semester.

"I am so pleased with the effort put forth by our athletes, our academic advising staff, our tutors, our coaches and our faculty to promote excellence in the classroom. It truly is a team effort. Our goal is to get every athlete on this list every semester. When I see the progress we've made in this direction I realize that while this may seem like a lofty goal, it is an attainable one and one worth pursuing," said Jurich.

The athletes will be honored at halftime of the men's basketball game against DePaul Jan. 22.

"I am very happy that the kids are taking the education so seriously and working as hard in the classroom as they do on the field. Our counselors get after it and make it a fun competition between the teams and it makes for a source of pride for our teams and our staff," said Marvin Mitchell, associate athletic director for academics.
