Athletes Recognized for Scholastic Achievement
CHICAGO, IL (May 23, 2006) - North Park University students Kari Anderson and Annika
Safstrom were named National Scholar Athletes by the Collegiate Rowing Coaches
Association.
The award is given to varsity rowers in at least their second year of
eligibility who have maintained a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or above
and have competed in a varsity boat for at least 75 percent of the spring
season.
Both Anderson and Safstrom are members of the team's varsity eight-person
crew. Both were also members of the varsity four-person crew that won the bronze
medal at the May 12 Dad Vail National Regatta.
This is the first year that Anderson was eligible for the award, and it is
the second year in a row that Safstrom has been recognized.
Since the team's first year as a varsity sport three years ago, six team
members have been recognized by the CRCA as National Scholar Athletes.
