SKILLMAN, N.J. – Eckerd College graduated senior
Dylan Randazzo and soon-to-be-sophomore
Takoda Edlund were both recognized by being selected Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Scholar-Athletes through the 2012-13 academic year.
The latest announcement from the ITA follows after the Eckerd women's tennis program learned four team members received the acclaimed accolade yesterday (Erika Fridrik, Christine Hammerschmidt, Manon Ironside, Hanna Segal).
With a total of six combined members selected as 2013 ITA Scholar-Athletes, EC Head Coach Erin Koenig proudly reflected on her team's latest achievement.
"I'm really proud of Dylan and Takoda," she said. "Takoda's freshman year speaks volumes about him and how he's managed tennis and his work in the classroom. Dylan has had a solid four years at Eckerd and has been a huge part of our program. They have set the highest standards for the rest of our team."
Randazzo and Edlund both share common majors in their studies of Marine Science at Eckerd.
In order to earn ITA Scholar-Athlete status a player must meet the following criteria: be a varsity letter winner, have a grade point average of at least 3.50 (on a 4.00 scale) for the current academic year, and have been enrolled at their present school for at least two semesters (including freshman thorough senior year).
All eligible student-athletes whose names appear on the NCAA/NAIA/NJCAA/CA JUCO eligibility form and have competed in one or more varsity matches must average into the GPA for the current academic year (including fall 2012 and spring 2013).
