NEWPORT NEWS, Va. – St. Bonaventure placed 266 student-athletes on the 2022-23 Atlantic 10 Commissioner's Honor Roll, as announced by the league office Tuesday.

That number represents over 70 percent of St. Bonaventure's student-athlete population.

Designed to recognize excellence in the classroom, a student-athlete in an Atlantic 10-sponsored sport at a full member institution must have a combined fall and spring semester grade point average of 3.0 or higher for the academic year to be selected for the Commissioner's Honor Roll. Both freshmen and graduate students are eligible to receive the award. In each of the last six years, the league honored over 3,000 student-athletes per year.

"It is extraordinary that once again our student-athletes have set a record for Commissioner's Honor Roll distinction," stated A-10 Commissioner Bernadette V. McGlade. "Scholastic achievement is a cornerstone of the Atlantic 10 Conference, and the educational experience and academic success of our student-athletes is a priority to the A-10 membership.  I applaud each of the student-athletes and our 15 schools for their commitment and continued success."

Bonnies women's lacrosse had 37 student-athletes named to the Commissioner's Honor Roll, most of any Bonaventure team. Baseball secured 28 Honor Roll selections while softball posted 26 and men's soccer recorded 25. Other Bonnies leaders included women's soccer (22), women's cross country/track (20) and men's lacrosse (20).
