Cardinal Trio Honored

STANFORD, Calif. – Fifth-year seniors Conrad Ukropina, Johnny Caspers and Dallas Lloyd were named to the Hampshire Honor Society, as announced Wednesday by the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame.
 
The Hampshire Honor Society is comprised of college football players from all divisions of play who each maintained a cumulative 3.2 grade-point average or better throughout their college careers.
 
"We are pleased to see a record number of colleges and universities embrace the Hampshire Honor Society this year," said National Football Foundation president Steve Hatchell. "Over the past decade, it has become a powerful vehicle for schools to recognize their college football players who have distinguished themselves both academically and athletically, and we congratulate the schools and each of these young men for their commitment to excellence in all aspects of their lives."

The initiative has honored 7,723 student-athletes since its inception, and the program has experienced growth every year in either members or school participation since its launch in 2007.
 
Qualifications for membership in the National Football Foundation Hampshire Honor Society include: being a starter or a significant contributor in one's last year of eligibility, achieving a 3.2 cumulative grade-point average throughout entire course of undergraduate study; and meeting all NCAA-mandated progress towards degree requirements.
