TOWSON, Md. --- Tusculum College women's golfer Jillian Corum has been named to the 2013 Capital One NCAA Division II Academic All-America® Women's At-Large second team, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Corum earns Academic All-America® distinction for a second straight season, moving up from last year's third team.

Women's at-large sports include: bowling, crew, fencing, field hockey, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rifle, skiing, swimming, tennis and water polo.

Last year, Corum became the first Tusculum Women's golfer to earn Academic All-America® honors when she was named to the Capital One Academic All-America® Women's At-Large third team.

Corum competed in 20 rounds for the Pioneers this season and averaged 78.60 strokes per round to rank second on the team and fifth-best in program history. She had one tournament win and six top-10 finishes in 10 events, and shot 238 at last month's South Atlantic Conference Championship where she finished in seventh place and earned a spot on the SAC All-Tournament Team for a third straight year.

The Knoxville, Tenn. native was named to the All-South Atlantic Conference first team for a second time and was also honored as the SAC Women's Golf Scholar Athlete of the Year.

She graduated from Tusculum last month with a 3.64 cumulative grade-point average as a business administration major. Corum is a member of the SAC Commissioner's Honor Roll and the Tusculum Athletic Director's Honor Roll.

Corum helped the Tusculum women's golf team to a pair of wins this season, while finishing third or better in seven events, including runner-up honors at the SAC Championship.

Corum leaves Tusculum as one of the most successful golfers in school history. She won a program-record five tournaments and posted the second-lowest career stroke average in TC history at 79.93.

Corum becomes the sixth Tusculum student-athlete to earn Academic All-America® honors on more than two occasions in their career, joining Denise Fliesser (women's soccer), Jarrell NeSmith (football), Simon Holzapfel (men's cross country), Ashley Sarmiento (volleyball) and Taylor Rakes (baseball).

The Capital One Division II Academic All-America® program is being financially supported by the NCAA Division II national governance structure to assist CoSIDA with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2012-13 Division II Academic All-America® teams program.

To be eligible for Academic All-America® consideration, a student-athlete must be a varsity starter or key reserve, maintain a cumulative G.P.A. of 3.30 on a scale of 4.00, have reached sophomore athletic and academic standings at his/her current institution and be nominated by his/her sports information director. Since the program's inception in 1952, CoSIDA has bestowed Academic All-America honors on more than 14,000 student-athletes in Divisions I, II, III and NAIA, covering all NCAA championship sports.
