Robinson, Ill. -- Lincoln Trail College has released its academic honor lists for the Fall 2018 Semester. Three lists have been established by Illinois Eastern Community Colleges to indicate students who have achieved academic excellence. They are the Chief Executive Officer’s Academic Honors List, the President’s Academic Honors List and the Dean’s Academic Honors List. To qualify for any of the honor lists, a student must be enrolled full-time (12 hours or more) and must be taking college-level classes.

 

On January 8, Lincoln Trail College hosted ten students and their families as they were presented the Crawford County Award for Excellence (CCAE) Scholarship. The scholarship, which is awarded to the top ten percent of the graduating class in each of Lincoln Trail College’s primary feeder schools, is the highest-level award that is given to prospective students.

Lincoln Trail College student-athletes have combined for a GPA above 3.0 for the tenth consecutive semester. Student-athletes combined for a 3.27 GPA in the Fall 2019 semester. “I couldn’t be happier with the performance of our student-athletes in the classroom,” said Athletic Director Kevin Bowers. “We have an expectation at Lincoln Trail College that not only will they perform at a high level on the court and field, but also that they’ll work hard in the classroom.”

Four Lincoln Trail College athletes have been honored for their achievements on the field this spring. Outfielder Jordan Brewer was named All-Northern District, All-Great Rivers Athletic Conference, and All-Region. Brewer, who committed to the University of Michigan, batted .367 with 31 RBI. Brewer is a two-time All-Conference and All-Region selection. Pitcher Kaleb Huxford earned All-Conference and All-Region honors. Huxford, who committed to Saint Leo University, went 5-1 with a 1.53 ERA for the Statesmen. He struck out 74 batters in his 59 innings pitched.
