MTSU junior guard Abbey Sissom has been named to the C-USA All-Academic team following a stellar season on the court and in the classroom.
Sissom is one of six C-USA student-athletes named to the all-academic squad, joining Nikolina Todorovic, FIU; Deanna Kuzmanic, UAB; Loryn Goodwin, UTSA; Kendall Noble, WKU; and Micah Jones, WKU.
Sissom sports a 3.76 grade point average and majors in Pre Physical Therapy/Exercise Science, and made the C-USA Commissioner's List in each of her previous two seasons as a Lady Raider.
"Academics has always been important to me because I am not going to play basketball forever," Sissom said.
