The Lincoln University Department of Athletics has announced the induction of 30 student-athletes into the Pennsylvania Alpha Xi chapter of Chi Alpha Sigma (XAΣ), the National College Athlete Honor Society. Chi Alpha Sigma recognizes student-athletes from accredited four-year NCAA, NAIA, or NCCAA institutions who excel in both the classroom and competition. It is the first national scholar-athlete society to honor collegiate student-athletes who have maintained a 3.4 or higher cumulative GPA throughout their junior and/or senior years.
It's the fourth and largest induction class at Lincoln University.
The women's basketball team and baseball team led the way with six and five inductees, respectively. Women's soccer and softball each had four inductees. Both the men's and women's track and field programs had three inductees, along with volleyball. Football and men's basketball each had one inductee.
Membership in local chapters is an honor bestowed upon selected student-athletes. Selection for membership is by an athletic department designee in consultation with the individual's head coach and is based on outstanding scholarship, earned athletic letter winner, and excellent character and citizenship.
Founded in 1996 by then DePauw University head football coach, Nick Mourouzis, Chi Alpha Sigma continues to provide outstanding student-athletes with an opportunity to become connected within a fraternal association that aligns their educational and athletic successes for a lifetime.
