CLEVELAND – The Mid-American Conference released its Men's Basketball Academic All-Mac Team on Wednesday with four Broncos from the Western Michigan men's basketball team receiving the academic recognition.
The quartet of Jason Whitens, William Boyer-Richard, Patrick Emilien and Chase Barrs earned Academic All-MAC honors as WMU was one of three schools in the conference to have four student-athletes represented.
The Academic All-MAC honor is for a student-athlete who has excelled in athletics and academics. To qualify, a student-athlete must have at least a 3.20 cumulative GPA and have participated in at least 50 percent of the contests for that particular sport.
