ST. LOUIS -- Four Panthers have been recognized for their skills both on the court and in the classroom by the Missouri Valley Conference.

For the second year in a row, senior guard Karli Rucker has been named to the MVC Scholar-Athlete First Team. The UNI women's basketball team had three other players recognized for Scholar-Athlete accolades. Guard Nicole Kreoger, Kam Finley, and center Cynthia Wolf received honorable mentions from the conference for their academics and play.

Rucker has now been named to a Scholar-Athlete team every year she has been eligible.
