Although classes have been moved to an online setting, that didn't slow down Cerritos College student-athletes from excelling in their schoolwork. During the Fall 2020 semester, the Falcons boasted 24 student-athletes on the President's List with a 4.0 GPA, while 63 others earned their name to the Dean's List, which requires a minimum 3.5 GPA. Altogether, there were 173 student-athletes that recorded at least a 3.0 GPA.
"I am excited to see how well our student-athletes are adapting to this new virtual environment," said Athletic Director Maria Castro. "It has been a difficult transition and our student-athletes have shown perseverance during this time. These accomplishments are something to be proud of and show the great character that our student-athletes are founded on."
