Twelve student-athletes at Hudson Valley Community College earned Academic All-Region Honors on Tuesday afternoon.

What exactly is an Academic All-Region Honor? It means that these student-athletes not only stood out on the field or the court but also completed 45 credit hours this semester and wrapped up their classes with a GPA of 3.5 or better. Pretty impressive when you've got practice every day too.

Now, keep in mind that HVCC does have athletes from outside of the Capital District so the fact that every single one of these kids graduated from a high school in the 518 is a real testament to the kind of student-athletes coming out of the area.

Check out the entire listing below and congratulations to everyone on the awesome accomplishment!
