ST. JOSEPH - For a fifth consecutive semester, Missouri Western student-athletes broke their department's academic records. The athletic department's cumulative GPA was 3.22 following the Spring 2020 semester, eclipsing the previous high of 3.15 following the Fall 2019 semester.

It was the highest cumulative GPA ever recorded by student-athletes at MWSU, aided by a semester GPA of 3.45. Fifteen of the department's 16 active teams achieved a GPA of 3.0 or higher. The only team under 3.0 had a 2.92 following the spring semester. That made the first time in Griffon Athletics history every team had at least a 2.90 cumulative GPA.

The Griffon tennis team paced women's teams at Missouri Western with a spring semester GPA of 4.0 and led the department with a 3.76 cumulative GPA. Baseball led the way amongst men's teams with a 3.30 cumulative GPA.
