UW-Whitewater's Arteaga Earns Spot on WIAC Scholastic Honor Roll

2016 Jul 22

Sarah Arteaga, a native of Greenfield, WI, and graduate of Whitnall High School, was one of 367 University of Wisconsin-Whitewater student-athletes representing all 20 of the institution's varsity sport programs named to the 2015-16 Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Honor Roll.

Arteaga, a junior on the Warhawks' women's swimming and diving team, is majoring in human resource management at UW-Whitewater.

The Warhawks' 11 women's teams had 193 honorees, while 174 student-athletes from the nine men's teams garnered Scholastic Honor Roll accolades. The Honor Roll is part of the "WIAC Scholar-Athlete Recognition Program", a conference initiative sponsored by Badgerland Financial.

In addition to the 367 individual awards, UW-Whitewater was named an All-Academic institution as student-athletes earned a GPA equal to, or greater than, the collective GPA of the overall student body.

To be eligible for the list, student-athletes must have carried a 3.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale. Nearly 50 percent of the WIAC's 5,000 student-athletes achieved Honor Roll status.
