Utah sees 35 student-athletes honored on prestigious list
IRVING, Texas – A total of 35 Utah Utes are among the honorees recognized by the Big 12 Conference in the announcement of the 2025 Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award – the Big 12's highest academic honor. Utah's honorees represent 14 sport programs, led by the women's track and field program with six recipients.
Â
The award is in its 14th year, and this year recognizes 392 student-athletes from member schools, raising the total to 1,835 conference student-athletes to be recognized.
Student-athletes must have lettered at least once in their career while maintaining residence at their institution for at least one academic year to be eligible for the honor. The honoree, which can only be recognized once, should have 90 hours of earned credit with a cumulative grade-point average of 3.80 at the time of the nomination.
The award is named in memory of Lage, who served as the Oklahoma State faculty athletics representative with the NCAA and the Big Eight/Big 12 Conference from 1983 until his death in 2007. He was the chairman on three occasions (1985-86, 93-94 and 2003-04).Â
