Alabama A&M Bowling Earns All-Academic Team and Four NTCA All-Academic Honors

NACOGDOCHES, Texas. – Alabama A&M bowling has placed four individuals on the National Tenpin Coaches Association (NTCA) All-Academic Team and earned the team All-Academic recognition as announced by that organization on Tuesday, July 13.
 
Those individual scholar athletes were juniors Montaya Walton (Detroit, Mich.) and Andreana Jones (Richmond, Ky.) and seniors Tease Davenport (Sheffield, Ala.) and Jacquelyne Beard (Huntsville, Ala.) This marks four straight years that Davenport received the honor and it's the second time for Walton.
 
Those selections marked the 12th time in the 17-year history of the award that A&M has earned at least one honoree. In order to secure a spot on the NTCA All-Academic Team, individuals must have a cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.4 or higher over the course of the academic school year.
 
In terms of the Team All-Academic recognition, the entire squad must have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.2 for the traditional academic calendar. This year Alabama A&M was among a 52 teams to accomplish this feat, doing so for a fourth-straight year with their 3.40 GPA. Alabama A&M was just one of four schools chosen from the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) alongside Prairie View, Jackson State and Texas Southern.
 
For the past 12 years that A&M has placed a student-athlete on the NTCA All-Academic Team, they have never had fewer than three. That mark included a program record six in each of the first two years of the award in 2005-06 and 2006-07 when the honors were also considered Academic All-American recognition.
 
With the four selections this year, the Bulldogs have now earned 14 of their 47 all-time honors in the past four seasons.
