GREENSBORO, N.C. – A school-record 12
UNCG student-athletes were inducted into the school’s
prestigious Golden Chain Honor Society on Sunday.
Women’s soccer and women’s cross country and track led
the way for UNCG with three inductees each. Jaimey Etten, Kelsey
Kearney and Stephanie Partenheimer represented the women’s
soccer team, while Chelsea Sumney, Shaina Sumney and Emily Vasquez
were selected from the cross country and track teams.
Men’s golf had two student-athletes inducted in Robert
Hoadley and Matt Younts, while Brian Carrington (men’s cross
country and track), Peyton Ford (men’s soccer), Kyle Randall
(men’s basketball) and Courtney Taylor (women’s golf)
were also inducted into the honor society.
The 12 inductees from the athletic department shattered the
previous record of eight, set in 2010.
The Golden Chain Honor Society seeks to recognize UNCG students
for outstanding achievement and service to the university. Founded
in 1948, The Golden Chain is unique to the UNCG campus. The seven
links of the Golden Chain symbolize the qualities that have always
been prerequisite for election to membership: leadership,
scholarship, service, tolerance, judgment, magnanimity and
character.
Candidates may be nominated by university professors or staff
members. Candidates must be academic juniors or seniors at UNCG
with an overall grade point average of at least 3.25. The Golden
Chain Scholarship is awarded annually and is supported by Society
projects and donations from Golden Chain alumni and honorary
members.
