Five senior student athletes from local high schools receive Academic All-state honors

Five local high school student athletes earned Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA) Academic All-state honors for the 2021 spring sports season.

From Monticello High School, Kennedy Brewer and Olivia Chamberlain were named to the Academic All-state girls golf team and Paul Reay was honored in boys track and field.

For San Juan High School, BrinLi Bowring was named to the Academic All-state girls golf team and Lydia Pugh received girls track and field honors.

To qualify for Academic All-state nominations, the student athletes were required to be seniors with a 4.0 cumulative, non-weighted grade point average (or meet an index score – viewable at uhsaa.org) and be a contributing member of a varsity team.

Congratulations to these excellent student athletes for their hard work and dedication both in scholastic and athletic pursuits.

The UHSAA has presented the Academic All-State Award for over 25 years to recognize students who excel in the classroom as well as in athletic competition. Individuals are selected for the award on the basis of their athletic ability and academic proficiency.

With over 85,000 students participating in high school activities, the Academic All-State Award is the most prestigious honor the UHSAA presents to senior students.
