BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – For the second year in a row, Arizona State gymnastics had 13 student-athletes earn Scholastic All-America honors from the Women's Collegiate Gymnastics Association (WCGA), as announced on Monday.
 
In addition to individual honors in the 2018-19 school year, the team's GPA of 3.6122 is ranked No. 19 in the nation. The 13 Scholastic All-Americans is the most by any Pac-12 team and the team GPA is second in the conference behind Washington (3.6786). ASU also tied last year's program record of WCGA Scholastic All-Americans.
 
The Gym Devils had an outstanding season in the classroom as well as in the gym. Nine earned Pac-12 All-Academic nods, including Pac-12 Scholar Athlete of the Year Anne Kuhm. The senior also earned 2019 Google Cloud Academic All-America Third Team honors, the first Gym Devil to be an academic All-American since 1998. Both Belkoff and Udowitch have earned NCAA post-graduate scholarships as well.
 
Corinne Belkoff, Justine Callis, Jessica Ginn, Morgan Hart, Anne Kuhm, Ashley Szafranski, Kaitlyn Szafranski, Heather Udowitch and Morgan Wilson all earned Pac-12 and WCGA honors. Belkoff, Lentz and Udowitch have made the list in all four seasons of their careers. There are also three first-timers: Kaitlin Harvey, Mekayla Jones and Maya Williams.
 
A complete list of team GPAs as submitted and documented by the institutions are linked here. To qualify for the exclusive honor, gymnasts must maintain the required 3.5 GPA or better. Overall, there were 31 teams and more than 56 percent of student-athletes maintaining a GPA of 3.5 or more on a 4.0 scale. A record number of student-athletes, 125 (8.91%), recorded a 4.0 GPA.
