AUBURN, Ala. – Six Auburn student-athletes have been selected by an Auburn Athletics staff panel as finalists for the Fall 2021 PNC Achievers Award based on their academic achievement, community service and leadership.
This semester's finalists include David Edmondson (men's track & field), Spencer Gray (men's tennis), Keira McCarrell (women's track & field), Morgan Leigh Oldham (gymnastics), Kiyae' White (women's basketball) and Chandler Wooten (football).
Two winners, one female and one male, will be chosen from the group of finalists as the Fall 2021 PNC Achievers and recognized at an in-game ceremony.
Allie Riddle (gymnastics) and Jack Rogers (track & field) were recognized on Pat Dye Field before the Ole Miss game as Auburn's Spring 2021 PNC Achievers.
"The PNC Achievers program aligns perfectly with our purpose to educate, support and develop our student-athletes at every moment, to create Auburn Women and Men," Auburn University Director of Athletics Allen Greene said. "PNC Achiever nominees and recipients have maximized all the resources our AuburnYOU life skills program offers while demonstrating excellence in academics, athletics and community service."FALL 2021 PNC ACHIEVERS AWARD FINALISTSDavid Edmondson
