ST. CATHARINES – Recognizing academic success from the 2021-22 academic year, the Brock Badgers proudly acknowledged 265 student-athletes at the Celebration of Academic Excellence.
 
Awarded Wednesday morning, the Badgers Academic Excellence Award honours student-athletes who achieve an average of 80 percent or higher within their program of study. Recipients received a certificate and pin at the annual Celebration of Academic Excellence Breakfast. As student-athletes achieve honour roll status in subsequent years, they will receive an additional, different pin each year, marking their academic success across the years.
 
"Today marked a special day in that we are excited to re-introduce our academic excellence celebration," mentioned Brock Sports & Recreation Executive Director Melissa Krist following the celebration. "We are so proud of all our student-athletes that have found success academically while representing their school on the playing field. Given that nearly 40 percent of all Brock Badger student-athletes were recognized as part of this morning's celebration, it is an incredible achievement".

In addition to the institutional honours, a total of 130 Badgers qualified as 2021-22 U SPORTS Academic All-Canadians, which are student-athletes who achieve an academic standing of 80 per cent or higher while playing a U SPORTS-sanctioned sport.
 
A full list of the 2021-22 Badgers Academic Excellence Award recipients is included below, along with the top individual GPA for each Brock varsity team.
