Georgia Brown: American Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year

The American Conference recently announced their Scholar-Athletes for the year, and it’s worth celebrating Georgia Brown and Jake Peacock for their outstanding achievements. Georgia Brown has been named the Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year and also received the honor of being the conference’s women’s soccer Scholar-Athlete of the Year. She’s a true star both on and off the field, with a degree in biomedical sciences and a stellar performance in soccer. Not only will Brown receive a $4,000 postgraduate scholarship for her accomplishments, but she also snagged a $2,000 scholarship specifically for her achievements in women’s soccer.

On the other hand, Jake Peacock has made a name for himself as the Men’s Golf Scholar-Athlete of the Year. He’s a standout in the world of golf, being the only two-time Men’s Golf Player of the Year and bagging the title of the only back-to-back American Conference individual champion. Peacock holds a degree in Integrated Public Relations and Advertising, and his hard work has earned him a $2,000 postgraduate scholarship.
