College Academic Honors FORESTERS AGAIN RECOGNIZED BY WBCA The 2002-03 Forester women's basketball team was recognized by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) for having one of the nation's highest team grade point averages in the NAIA. For Lori Culler, head coach of the Foresters, this is not something unusual. Coach Culler was herself recognized for her outstanding academic record in 1985, when she was named NAIA Academic All America in Women's Basketball. The Foresters, under Coach Culler's direction, have been recognized by the WBCA six times in the last seven years for team academic excellence. Below is a listing of each of those six honor rolls, beginning with the most recent release, of the Academic Top-25 Team Honor Roll. Founded in 1981, the WBCA promotes women's basketball by unifying coaches at all levels to develop a reputable identity for the sport and to foster and promote the development of the game in all of its aspects as an amateur sport for women and girls.
