Texas High School Coaches Association released its Academic All-State honor list last week and seven Devine High School students earned recognition for their outstanding accomplishments inside the classroom over the last seven semesters of their high school career.
Warhorse football players Matthew Gomez, Ayden Leal, Gavin Socarras, Jacob Sollock, and Tate Wisenbaker along with student-trainer Savannah Parker made Honorable and student-manager Logan Davis made Second Team.
“We are so proud of these young men and young woman!” Head Coach Paul Gomez stated. “It is a tremendous accomplishment and honor to be recognized for athletic and academic excellence!”
THSCA, “We understand that students’ performance in the classroom can sometimes be difficult to manage while participating in athletics, but their hard work has not gone unnoticed. The THSCA Academic All-State Teams recognize senior high school athletes, trainers and managers who excel in the following categories: GPA, class rank and ACT/SAT score. Team members are being recognized based on their scores in these categories. We applaud them for their commitment and dedication to perform with the highest of excellence academically and on the field or court.”
Nominees must either be an athlete, or student trainer, or manager in good standing with the team of good moral character with an overall grade point average of 92 or above including courses from grades 9-11 and courses completed from grade 12 with weighted GPAs only 92 or above accepted.
“To have seven Academic All-State students representing Devine Warhorse Football is awesome! I am so proud of these student athletes and student trainers!” Gomez commented in closing.
