HENDERSON — The spring season is one of the busiest for Freed-Hardeman University athletics with nine sports competing. That also means a plethora of student-athletes are celebrated for academic and character accomplishments.

The Champions of Character initiative recognizes a student-athlete for their adherence to the five core values: integrity, respect, responsibility, sportsmanship, and servant leadership. Nominated by their coaches, the following student-athletes were celebrated:
 

Softball	Grayson Mayo
Men's Tennis	Daan van Miltenburg
Women's Tennis	Morgan Brown
Men's Golf	Ben Sebilian
Women's Golf	Maggie Crouch
Baseball	Dean Bechman

In addition to the Champions of Character, 117 student-athletes qualified at least for Academic All-Conference. To qualify, a student-athlete must be in at least their second full year (or third semester) and maintain an institutional GPA of 3.25 or higher. Additional student-athletes may qualify for the NAIA Scholar Athlete award if they maintained a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher.
