The Valparaiso University football program sustained its standard of success in the classroom this fall, as 41 members of the team were named to the 2019 Pioneer Football League Honor Roll, which was announced on Monday.

This marks the seventh consecutive season Valpo has boasted 40 or more honor roll members.

Pioneer Football League athletic directors and coaches established the honor roll in 2001 as a way to recognize the league’s outstanding student-athletes. The academic honor roll consists of student-athletes who participated in football at member institutions during the fall semester and posted a 3.0 grade-point average or higher during the semester while enrolled full-time in accordance with NCAA rules.

The Pioneer Football League has recognized 580 student-athletes from its 10 member institutions to the Fall 2019 PFL Academic Honor Roll. To date the league has recognized more than 8,300 student-athletes on the PFL Academic Honor Roll.
