MONTREAL – The varsity sports program at McGill University continues to be a shining beacon for academic prowess. A reception was held on campus in Tomlinson Hall, Tuesday, unveiling 213 names that qualified for the 2022 edition of the Principal's Student-athlete Honour Roll.
To qualify, an athlete must maintain a cumulative grade-point average of 3.50 (out of 4.0), while consuming a year of collegiate eligibility. Data for the 2021-22 school year featured a lofty 22 McGill varsity athletes with a perfect GPA of 4.0.
"It's a testament to our coaches, who create a culture that places significant importance on the academic success of their student-athletes. We're proud of how well they perform in the classroom, in addition to on the playing field," said
Geoffrey Phillips, executive director of Athletics and Recreation at the University. "While dedicating a significant amount of time to practicing and competing, their average GPA is generally on par with that of the undergrad student population. The average GPA of our varsity program for all athletes combined was 3.3 last year."
The women's track and cross-country programs combined to lead all teams with 28 honourees, while football was next with 24, followed by women's rugby (22), men's rugby (19), women's soccer (18), men's track & cross-country (16), men's hockey (15), men's soccer (15), women's volleyball (12), women's hockey (12), women's swimming (12), men's swimming (11), women's basketball (7) and men's basketball (2).
Women make up 111 of the laureates, while the men numbered 102. Science led all faculties with 66 honourees, followed by Arts (51), Engineering (32), Management (27), Education (14), Arts & Science (14), Continuing Studies (5) and Medicine (4).
The breakdown by geographical region includes 182 from Canada, 16 from the United States, 10 from France, three from the United Kingdom, and one apiece from Syria and the United Arab Emirates.
Quebec led all Canadian provinces with 105, followed by Ontario (45), British Columbia (20), Alberta (6), Nova Scotia (2), Manitoba (1), Saskatchewan (1), New Brunswick (1) and Newfoundland-Labrador (1).
