ST. LOUIS - Forty student-athletes have been named to the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC) All-Academic Team. The recipients were varsity members of their school's men's or women's basketball squad for the Winter 2008-09 season. Other selection criteria include: (1) Minimum 3.5 cumulative grade point average, (2) At least sophomore academic standing and (3) Have at least one full year at current institution (first year transfers and true freshmen are not eligible).

Blackburn is proud to recognize that two of its own athletes have been named to this honorable team. Both have attributed a lot to their college and continue to work hard. Tommy Baro and Megan Schultz are the two recipients that were name to the All-Academic Team in the SLIAC Conference.

He has played basketball at Blackburn for three years and is going to be missed next year. Megan is a junior and is from Sadorus, IL.

We are all proud of both Tommy and Megan’s accomplishments and we wish them the best of luck for any of their future plans. Congratulations.
