    McCormick named First Team Academic All-American

    Columbia, Mo. -- Recent graduate and two-time wrestling All-American Tyler McCormick (Leawood, Kan.) was named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Men's At Large First Team as announced today by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). McCormick's first-team honor is Missouri's first since Shaon Fry was awarded the accolade in 1993. Missouri's first three-time Academic All-American in wrestling, McCormick earned third team honors his junior (2007) and sophomore (2006) seasons.

    The 133-pound grappler was one of 15 individuals selected to the ESPN The Magazine Men's At-Large University Division First Team. In addition, McCormick is one of three wrestlers named to the first team and one of only two Big 12 honorees.

    McCormick recorded a 3.95 cumulative grade-point average throughout his time at Missouri, earning a degree in business management in May, 2008. One of 29 recipients of the NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship, McCormick is a four-time Academic All-Big 12 first team honoree, three time ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District Seven award winner and three-time National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) All-American in Academics.
