UNF Athletics Reaches New Milestones in Spring '24 Semester

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida Athletics reached new heights with academic milestones during the spring 2024 semester, touting a 3.57 institution-wide grade point average, as announced by the department on Monday afternoon.

"It was an amazing year for our student-athletes on the field and in the classroom! It really takes a village and we have the best village around," said Assistant AD of Student-Athlete Center for Excellence, Tara Sunquist. "The holistic support our student-athletes receive from coaches, administration, and staff is unparalleled. Special thanks to Carrie Driscoll and Jessica Spangler for the support and care they provide."

UNF Athletics has now surpassed a 3.0 grade-point average for the 26th straight semester. This mark matches the spring 2023 mark for the highest GPA in the department outside of the spring 2020 COVID-19 altered semester.

Beach volleyball led the charge academically with the highest team GPA at 3.79, while men's tennis notched the best mark from a male team at 3.77. It was a new record-high mark for men's tennis and softball team GPAs, while also putting together the highest male GPA ever in a semester. UNF also recorded 19 more 4.0's this semester than there was during the fall '23 term.

All told, there was a total of 68 UNF student-athletes with a perfect 4.0 GPA, along with 197 Ospreys with a 3.5 GPA or better, and 272 student-athletes with a 3.0 GPA or better.

This semester's numbers are a testament to the hard work of the UNF student-athletes, Student-Athlete Center for Excellence (SACE) staff and the University of North Florida professors and advisors.
