ST. LOUIS — The Seawolves continue to get it done in the classroom and on the playing surface.
 
Women's tennis junior Maria Pinto Ribeiro was named to the Missouri Valley Conference Scholar Athlete Honorable Mention Team on Thursday morning.
 
As a health science major, Ribeiro currently sports a 3.68 GPA as one of three junior leaders on Gary Glassman's club.
 
"Maria has worked extremely hard in the classroom and on the court over the last three years," Glassman said. "This award is the culmination of all her efforts and the best is yet to come with her senior year."
 
Ribeiro won the B flight title at this fall's West Point Invitational, losing just two sets during the entire weekend. In the shortened spring season, she went 4-0 at the No. 2 singles spot and 6-1 in all doubles matches.
 
The Seawolves, selected as the preseason favorite in the MVC Coaches Poll, were on a four-match winning streak when the spring season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
