CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State baseball's Jack Anderson and women's rowing's Paige Phillips have both earned Pac-12 Postgraduate Scholarships, the conference office announced.
The scholarships, worth $9,000 each, are awarded to up to two student-athletes from each Pac-12 school annually. These worthy student-athletes maintained a minimum 3.0 grade point average and demonstrated a commitment to education, campus and community involvement, and leadership.
"We congratulate this year's exceptional recipients as they continue their academic endeavors in a wide variety of fields," Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott said. "The Pac-12 is committed to helping our student-athletes achieve academic excellence and we are excited to see how these young women and men accomplish their goals and impact their communities in the near future."
