98 FMU Student-Athletes Named to PBC Presidential Honor Roll

Francis Marion University landed 98 student-athletes on the Peach Belt Conference’s Presidential Honor Roll.

The Presidential Honor Roll recognizes all student-athletes at PBC institutions who had a grade point average of 3.00 or higher, based on a 4.00 scale, for the 2017-18 academic year.   The honor roll is divided into four groups: Presidential Scholars (GPA of 3.00 to 3.24), Bronze Scholars (3.25 to 3.49), Silver Scholars (3.50 to 3.74), and Gold Scholars (3.75 to 4.00).

Among the FMU athletes named to the honor roll were eight athletes who earned the honor for the fourth time: women’s cross country and track and field athlete MacKenzie Arnold (Murrells Inlet, SC), men’s soccer player Harrison Smith (Hartlepool, England), baseball pitcher Arien Seymour (Nassau, Bahamas), golfers Alessandro Caselli (Vimercate, Italy) and Marc Casullo (Aurora, Ontario, Canada), women’s tennis player Sofia Henning (Gothenburg, Sweden), and men’s cross country and track and field athletes Javier Bustos Jaimes (Eagle Springs, NC) and Devin Nelson (Bloomfield, CT).

Earlier this year, 109 student-athletes at Francis Marion were named to the university’s Swamp Fox Athletic-Academic Honor Roll for the 2017 fall semester and 108 for the 2018 spring semester.
