Five hundred nineteen student-athletes from four winters sports were named to the 2025-26 Gulf South Conference Honor Roll.

In addition, 39 student-athletes were recognized as GSC All-Academic Team selections.

HONOR ROLL
ALL-ACADEMIC TEAMS 

To achieve honor roll status, a GSC student-athlete must have a grade point average of 3.00 of better out of a possible 4.00 at the time the conference announces the award and have competed in outstanding competition–not counting exhibitions or scrimmages–during the season the award is presented.

To be named to the All-GSC Academic team, nominees must have a cumulative GPA of 3.20 or better their entire academic career at their institution and may not be a freshmen or first-term transfer. The student-athlete must also be a significant contributor to the team. Other factors include leadership, community service and extracurricular activities. Institutions are not allowed to vote for their own student-athletes. The number of student-athletes selected in each sport is determined by the number of positions normally involved in the playing of that sport. Ties are not broken. All-GSC Academic nominees are selected jointly by faculty athletic representatives and sports information directors from within the league.
