Columbia, Mo. - Seven Mizzou Women's Basketball players were named to the 2013-14 Winter SEC Academic Honor Roll as announced Thursday (April 24) by the league office. Redshirt freshman Lindsey Cunningham joins sophomores Lianna Doty, Michelle Hudyn, Maddie Stock and Morgan Stock and senior Bri Kulas as first-time members of the honor roll, while the honor marks junior Morgan Eye' second consecutive season on the list.
The academic honor is the third in her career for Eye as she was named to the 2012 Academic All-Big 12 First Team prior to joining the Southeastern Conference. Cunningham, Doty, Hudyn, Maddie Stock and Morgan Stock were all recognized to the 2013 SEC First-Year Academic Honor Roll last season as well.
A total of 614 student-athletes were named to the Honor Roll, based on grades from the 2013 Spring, Summer and Fall terms.
