Nine Mountain Hawks had at least a 3.60 GPA or higher which also qualified them for Lehigh’s Dean List.
Senior Evans Kosgei also made the Honor Roll with a 3.46 GPA in Computer Science (EN) while the Moiben, Kenya native placed 14th in the NCAA First Round at the end of May and broke his own school record in the process.
Senior Kyle Forrest made the list with a 3.48 GPA in Accounting and in early May was named to 10-team Academic All-Patriot League team.
