Joining Armour, Mecko, and Meyer are men's track & field athletes Justin Armstrong and Miguel Garcia, women's basketball players Gaby Bronson and Jennifer Blunt, along with women's cross country and track & field athlete Amanda Zittleman.
All eight were among the 71 UW-Parkside student-athletes named to the Academic All-GLVC Team.
