"We are extremely proud of our student-athletes and their academic efforts this fall," said A'dja Jones, Associate Athletic Director for Academics and Student-Athlete Support Services. "Being a student-athlete, especially during this time, is tough. Expectations are high. There never seems to be enough time to complete everything. Yet, our Blazer student-athletes continue to prove that discipline, dedication, and asking for help, when needed, pays off in the classroom just as it does on their respective field of play.

"This could not have been accomplished without the efforts of our fantastic academic support staff pouring into all UAB student-athletes. We are looking forward to another successful semester this Spring and will strive to keep improving in the classroom and community."
