Laramie, Wyo. (Feb. 7, 2023) -- The Mountain West Conference announced its 2022 Fall Academic All-Mountain West team on Tuesday.  A total of 83 University of Wyoming student-athletes were named to the 2022 fall team.  The 83 Cowboys and Cowgirls included: 12 men's cross country runners, 11 women's cross country team members, 31 Cowboy football student-athletes, 17 Cowgirl soccer team members and 12 Cowgirl volleyball student-athletes.  
 
Wyoming's 83 total student-athletes ranked as the fourth most among all Mountain West member schools, which includes 11 universities that compete in multiple conference sponsored sports, as well as affiliate members Colorado College, that competes only in women's soccer, and Hawai'i, that competes only in football.  Only Fresno State (95 honorees), Boise State (88) and Utah State (86) had more than Wyoming's 83.
           
To be eligible for selection, student-athletes must have completed at least one academic term at the member institution while maintaining a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better and must have competed in 50 percent of the team's completed varsity contests.  Some latitude is permitted to accommodate those student-athletes who were injured and unable to compete in the required number of games.
           
The Mountain West also names an Academic All-Conference Team for winter and spring sports that will be released later in the year.
