Author: The Daily News Now! August 1, 2026 Duration: 1:38

Georgia Tech dominates the ACC academic honor roll with 214 student-athletes earning a 3.0 GPA or higher, showcasing their elite balance of athletics and academics. Across the conference, 7,496 student-athletes made the list, but Tech’s depth is staggering—with 58 athletes achieving this honor for the third time or more, and 28 earning it four times. Football led with 51 honorees, followed by cross country and track (41) and baseball (29), while golf (7 of 8) and tennis (11 of 13) hit near-perfect marks. This isn’t a fluke: Tech has maintained over 200 honor roll athletes for seven straight years, building a culture where excellence on the field and in the classroom go hand in hand. These Yellow Jackets prove that true success means winning both ways.
