Gronningsater Honored as ACC Postgraduate Scholarship Recipient

DURHAM, N.C. – In February, Duke fencing senior Eoin Gronningsater was selected a 2020 Weaver-James-Corrigan Postgraduate Scholarship Award recipient by the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The Weaver-James-Corrigan and Jim and Pat Thacker postgraduate scholarships are awarded to selected student-athletes who intend to pursue a graduate degree following completion of their undergraduate requirements.

Each recipient will receive $6,000 toward his or her graduate education. Those honored have performed with distinction in both the classroom and their respective sport, while demonstrating exemplary conduct in the community.

"Being a postgraduate scholarship recipient is a testament to the hard work I've put in on the academic and athletic side," Gronningsater said.
