McMunn named to Verizon Academic All-District squad
Lacey McMunn (Parsons, Kan.) has been named to the Verizon Academic All-District VII At-Large Team, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America.
McMunn, a sophomore tennis player for the Lady Lions, was picked for second team honors on the all-district team.
In 2003, McMunn was picked for first-team All-MIAA honors after going 12-9 at No. 2 singles for Missouri Southern this year. She was also an honorable mention all-conference pick at No. 1 doubles after posting a 15-9 ledger with teammate Sheryl Posch. The Posch/McMunn team was ranked eighth regionally in the April 15 set of Intercollegiate Tennis Association rankings.
McMunn maintains a perfect 4.0 grade-point average and was recently named to the MIAA Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll. The elementary education major is also on track to earn Academic All-MIAA honors and to repeat as an MIAA Presidential Scholar.
The Lady Lions finished with a 7-12 won-lost record in 2002-03 and went 3-3 in the MIAA to tie for third place in the league standings. Southern finished fifth at the conference tournament last month.
