On the women’s side, eight basketball players were honored following a standout season that featured a consistent top 25 national ranking and the program’s fourth NCAA Tournament appearance in five years.

 

Among the academic recipients were 46 student-athletes from the Alabama men’s (18) and women’s (28) swimming and diving programs. The honorees tallied a combined 24 All-America accolades as both teams concluded impressive seasons with top 15 finishes at the NCAA Championships.

To qualify for the SEC Academic Honor Roll, student-athletes must have achieved a grade point average of 3.0 or higher for either the previous academic year or their cumulative career and must be in at least their second year of academic standing. The winter list honors those student-athletes that participate in men’s & women’s basketball, gymnastics and swimming & diving as well as equestrian and rifle.

 

Alabama has tallied a total number of 207 SEC Academic Honor Roll recipients for the 2024-25 academic year. Additional student-athletes will be added when the spring and first-year honor rolls are released later this year
