SEWANEE, Tenn. - Recent Sewanee Graduate
Jordan Casey (Charleston, S.C./James Island) has
been awarded an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship, according to Teaera
Strum of the NCAA. The scholarships are awarded to
student-athletes who excel academically and athletically and who
are in their final year of intercollegiate athletics
competition.
"We are extremely proud that Jordan has been selected as Sewanee's
twenty-seventh NCAA Postgraduate Scholar," said Sewanee athletic
director Mark Webb. "Her academic and athletic
accomplishments while at Sewanee were extraordinary, and she joins
a class of scholar-athletes that simply represents our very
best."
Sewanee's first recipient was Frank Stubblefield
in 1965 (Football). The most recent Tiger to earn the prestigious
award was Hallie Blunck in 2006 (Diving). Casey is
the first tennis player from Sewanee to receive the award.
Casey graduated in the Spring with a 4.03 cumulative GPA and was a
Spanish and Biology double major. She is also a 2009 Academic
All-American. The Charleston native is a member of Phi Beta Kappa
and was a Rhodes Scholarship finalist in 2008. The four-time ITA
National Scholar-Athlete has earned spots on the Dean's List, the
SCAC Academic Honor Roll and won the Robert Woodham Daniel Prize in
Expository Writing.
On the tennis court, Casey has a 60-18 career singles record, a
39-24 career doubles record, finished in 2006 with a final doubles
ranking of #15 and was a member of the 2007 SCAC All-Tournament
team. She played on NCAA Tournament teams under head coach
Conchie Shackelford in 2006, 2007 and 2008 and was
a member of the third-ranked team of 2007, which was also the SCAC
champion squad that year.
"Through the support and encouragement of my professors, coaches,
and teammates, I was given the opportunity to pursue a double major
while excelling on the tennis court. The Sewanee experience abounds
with individual mentorship and team cohesion; it provides an ideal
environment for student-athletes. I am currently conducting seabird
research on Southeast Farallon Island, a National Wildlife Refuge
28 miles west of San Francisco. Ultimately, I plan to obtain a PhD
in Marine Ecology," added Casey.
The NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship was created in 1964 to promote
and encourage postgraduate education by rewarding the Association's
most accomplished student-athletes through their participation in
NCAA championship and/or emerging sports. Athletics and academic
achievements, as well as campus involvement, community service,
volunteer activities and demonstrated leadership, are
evaluated.
