SAN FRANCISCO – Ten Washington State football student-athletes received Pac-12 Conference All-Academic honors, conference commissioner Larry Scott announced Thursday.
To be eligible, a student-athlete must have a minimum 3.0 overall grade-point-average and appear in at least 50 percent of their team's games. The 10 selections are tied for the most in program history (2009) and the Cougars have had at least five players earn all-academic recognition every season under head coach Mike Leach.
Redshirt-sophomore wideout Brandon Arconado and redshirt-senior linebacker Peyton Pelluer were both named to the Pac-12 All-Academic Second Team, the first career honor of Arconado and fourth career accolade for Pelluer who has earned his third straight second-team honor.
