Goldey-Beacom College Department of Athletics Holds Student-Athlete Awards Ceremony

4/26/2022 12:00:00 AM

Goldey-Beacom College was proud to hold its 2022 Student-Athlete Awards Ceremony that not only featured a new format and venue, but kept up the tradition of presenting many awards to deserving student-athletes in both athletics and academics.

The ceremony in past years was combined with the department's Hall of Fame Ceremony and was held at Deerfield Golf Club in Newark. But the recent opening of the College's Events Center brought everything back on campus and allowed a separate event that was all about the student-athletes.

"The recent facility upgrades have allowed us to relocate this event to the GBC Campus, which is tremendous." Director of Athletics Jeremy Benoit said. "Where COVID put a pause on many events, it actually allowed us to re-think this one and make it more impactful. The student-athletes seemed to really enjoy the event in its new venue and format, which was evident with the energy in the room. It was great to see them get excited and loud for their teammates accomplishments both on and off the playing surface."

The day's honors included the following awards:

Scholar Athlete Awards for the highest grade point average for each sport
Chi Alpha Sigma pins for inductees of the National Student-Athlete Honors Society
Student-Athlete stoles for graduating seniors
President's Award, which cites leadership and sportsmanship
Brian Conley Comeback Player of the Year Award
Male and Female Rookies of the Year
Male and Female Most Valuable Players

"The 2021-22 academic year has been another year with many things to celebrate for GBC Athletics." Benoit added. "Our student-athletes continue to achieve at a high level in athletics, academia and their communities. We are incredibly proud of them in all that they do."
