MUNCIE, Indiana – The Ball State University Board of Trustees on Thursday recognized one of the University's most successful periods of Athletic Department achievement, both on and off the field.
In the classroom, Ball State student-athletes set departmental academic records for three consecutive semesters, including a cumulative 3.37 GPA for the 2021 Spring term.
Competitively this past year, Ball State had its best showing in the Mid-American Conference (MAC) Reese Trophy (men's sports) standings in eight years, and its best Jacoby Trophy (women's sports) finish in more than a decade. These standings are determined by collective competitive success for all men's and women's sports programs.
