Nine Lady Bulldogs named to President's and Dean's List for Fall 2012

GOODMAN --- Nine members of the Holmes Community College Lady Bulldog fastpitch softball team were named to either the President's and Dean's list for Fall 2012.

Kelsey Rogers, Lauren Tharp, Kelsey Marter, Katherine Pennington and Victoria Hunt were named to the President's List while Alecia McDaniel, Samantha Meadows, Sara Grace Gunter and Michelle Gregory were named to the Dean's List. To be placed on the president's list, a student must have a grade point average of 3.7 to 4.0 while a dean's list student must have a grade point average of 3.4 to 3.69.

"I've extremely proud of these young ladies," Head Coach Ricky Casey said. "This is just another example of the student athletes we have on our softball team.

"They work hard in making sure their work done not only in the classroom but on the field as well," he said. "When they are not in class or on the field, they are helping each other with their studies. The returning players set the tone last year by receiving several academic awards, and they are working to make sure the younger players do the same."
