LOCK HAVEN, Pa. -- High-level academic and athletic performance continues to serve as a staple of Kutztown University. On Tuesday, 174 Golden Bear student-athletes were named Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Scholar-Athletes for the 2018-19 academic year.

Kutztown produced a school-record 181 honorees last year and valiantly backed that number up this year with its second-highest total ever.

More than 100 Golden Bear student-athletes have earned PSAC Scholar-Athlete recognition in each of the last 13 years.

Student-athletes must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.25 or higher at the completion of the most recent academic year to be eligible for PSAC Scholar-Athlete status.

The PSAC's 18 institutions combined to produce 3,061 Scholar-Athletes, totaling 42% of the student-athlete population. Both numbers break previous conference records of 2,934 and 41% set just one year ago. The league has registered better than a 30% rate for 10 straight years.

From Kutztown, 127 female student-athletes were honored, more than 61% of the female varsity student-athlete population. Just under 25% of the Golden Bear male student-athlete population qualified for Scholar-Athlete status with 51 honorees.
