WBCA Ranks York 8th In Its 2007-08 Academic Top 25 Team Honor Roll
The Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) ranked York College 8th among its 2007-08 NCAA Division III Academic Top 25 Team Honor Roll.
This award, given in NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III, NAIA and Junior College/Community College, awards teams throughout the nation that carry the highest grade point averages (GPA) for the entire season based on the nomination submitted by WBCA-member head coaches.
GPAs are calculated by dividing the total number of quality points earned by each student-athlete on an institution's roster in the given academic terms by the total number of hours earned by the team. The GPAs are rounded to the nearest thousandth of a point. Per a motion passed by the WBCA Board of Directors in 2007, teams making the list of Academic Top 25 Team Honor Roll must obtain at least a 3.000 overall GPA.
The Spartans, under veteran head coach Betsy Witman, boasted a 3.467 team GPA during the 2007-08 season while finishing with a 19-8 overall record and fourth place in the CAC with a 10-8 conference record. The 19 wins was the third-highest total in the CAC.
