The Crimson Tide's 11 honorees is tied for most among conference and third-most nationally
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - Alabama rowing continues to rack up honors for the spring season, as 11 student-athletes were named to the 2018 Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association (CRCA) Scholar-Athlete list. One of the 11, senior Nicole Lane, was additionally selected to the CRCA All-Conference team.
The 11 award winners on this year's list places Alabama in a tie for most of any Big 12 program and third among all NCAA Division-I programs, behind only North Carolina (15) and Louisville (13).
It also marks the fourth-straight season in which the Crimson Tide has posted 10 or more student-athletes on the list and fifth time overall. All 11 earned Academic All-Big 12 honors earlier this season.
Alabama's 2018 honorees include Charlotte Adkins, Tayla Cabana, Makena Clark, Raien Emery, Danielle Kem, Nicole Lane, Anne Lehmann, Monica McGraw, Emily Navin, Rachel Sowell and Lindsey Taylor.
To qualify as a CRCA Scholar-Athlete, a student-athlete with a 3.5 cumulative career GPA must be in at least their sophomore year of eligibility and have rowed in a minimum of 75 percent of the 2017-2018 year or in the school's regional conference event.
Additionally, Lane was named to the CRCA All-Conference team, representing the Big 12. This makes her eligible for the All-American team which will be announced later this month. The All-Conference team replaces the previous All-Region award given by the CRCA, which Lane won last season.
