Commonwealth University

A total of 512 Commonwealth University studentathletes have been named to the 2022-23 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Scholar-Athlete award list. The list encompasses students from the Commonwealth U Bloomsburg, Lock Haven and Mansfield locations.

Student-athletes must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.25 upon completion of the academic year to be eligible for the PSAC Scholar-Athlete Award.

Student-athletes named to the list include:

• Nate Farrell, of DuBois, a Commonwealth University-Lock Haven student and baseball student-athlete.

• Zane Puhala, of Brockway, a Commonwealth University-Lock Haven student and men’s soccer student-athlete.

Overall, the PSAC honored 3,794 studentathletes from the league’s 18 institutions after the conclusion of the 2022-23 academic year as PSAC Scholar-Athletes.

The 2022-23 PSAC Scholar-Athlete total of 3,794 (52% of the entire PSAC student-athlete population) marks the eighth straight year the PSAC has awarded at least 40% of its studentathlete population with “Scholar-Athlete” status. The total number of PSAC Scholar-Athletes dropped from 4,144 recipients in 2021-22 due to the league’s more stringent criteria in determining student-athlete eligibility for the award.
