BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana Women's Soccer's Allison Jorden has earned the prestigious Jack D. Tichenor Award, the IU Varsity Club announced this week. Jorden was honored at Tuesday's Men's Basketball game along with representatives from the other 23 sports for scholastic achievement.
The Tichenor Award is given annually to IU's top male and female student-athletes that hold the highest individual cumulative GPA among the entire Department of Athletics. Wrestling's Spencer Irick earned the award on the men's side.
Jorden is the first member of the women's soccer team to earn the award since Rebecca Dreher did so in 2014.
The Jack D. Tichenor Memorial Award was established in 1984 to honor and acknowledge the student athlete who best exemplifies Jack D. Tichenor's ideals of scholastic achievement and athletic ability.
Since 1979, the Varsity Club has presented the Scholastic Achievement Awards to recognize student-athletes from each of our varsity sports who have excelled in the classroom.
Jorden, a junior from Scottsdale, Ariz., started every game of the 2018 season in the midfield, scoring a pair of goals and adding an assist. Jorden is a two-time Academic All-Big Ten selection and was a 2017 Big Ten Distinguished Scholar.
