WACO, Texas ÃÆ' ¢Ãƒ ¢' ¬" Seven Baylor student-athletes received 2017 Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement accolades, as announced by the Big 12 Conference on Tuesday morning.

Richard Cunningham (baseball), Bridget Hamway (soccer), Jody Lee (soccer), Jenna Pfeiffer (track and field), Kely Putri (women's tennis), Blair Shankle (women's tennis) and Tyler Stayer (men's tennis) were recognized for maintaining a GPA of 3.8 or higher in at least 100 hours of earned credit.
