Bisons set another record for Academic All-Canadians at UM

For the fourth consecutive season, Bisons student-athletes have set a new record at the University of Manitoba for the largest number of U SPORTS Academic All-Canadians to be recognized. A grand total of 145 student-athletes qualified for this national recognition which is determined by having a minimum 3.5 grade point average in their specific field of study. One significant academic highlight of the 2019-20 season is that 67 of the 145, or 46 per cent of the student-athletes finished with a 4.0 GPA or higher.
 
"Bison Sports congratulates the 145 exceptional Bisons that achieved Academic All-Canadian status. It is another record for the Bisons family, and we could not be prouder," said Gene Muller, Director of Athletics and Recreation.
 
"Our student-athletes are a constant source of inspiration for our entire community and we admire their hard work, dedication and investment made to their personal success, the success of their teams and to the University of Manitoba."
