University of Evansville sophomore Greg Pulscher (Colorado Springs, Colo./Liberty) has earned Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete Team status for his work both on and off of the cross country course this year.

Pulscher captured MVC Scholar-Athlete Team status by placing 20th overall at the 2007 State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Championships, while carrying a 3.23 cumulative grade point average in political science at UE.  Valley student-athletes who place in the Top 20 individually at the conference meet and own a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher as a sophomore or higher eligibility-wise at their respective MVC school earn MVC Scholar-Athlete Team honors.

Pulscher becomes just the second male runner in UE’s 13-year history in the MVC to earn Scholar-Athlete status, joining three-time Valley honoree Nick Waninger.  Pulscher is the third UE runner overall to earn MVC Scholar-Athlete status, as female senior standout Andrea Sonnenschein also garnered Scholar-Athlete honors this season.
