(From MSSU Lions Athletic News)

Missouri Southern senior outfielder Abi Corbett secures spot on the Google Cloud Academic All-American first team after being selected by the
College Sports Information Director of the America (CoSIDA) for the second year in a row.

Corbett majored in marketing and produced a 4.0 GPA, earning first-team All-District honors earlier in the spring on her way to All-American status.

The Wentzville product competed in all 52 games and recorded 71 hits for first in the MIAA and fourth in the entire Division II softball landscape while also leading the conference in stolen bases (35) toward an All-MIAA first-team selection.

On top of grabbing those numbers, the veteran capped off her career first in at-bats (741), hits (270), and stolen bases (107), to go along with a second place showing in games played (216) and runs scored (138) to ink herself into the MSSU softball record books.

Twenty-two of the 33 members of the 2018 Google Cloud Academic All-America Division II Softball teams have at least a 3.90 G.P.A., with 12 student-athletes maintaining a perfect 4.00 GPA. The 11 members of the first team have an average GPA of 3.93.
