COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference announced their Summit Award winner for wrestling on Monday (Feb. 20) morning. Colorado Mesa's Denim Torgerson earned the honor as having the top GPA on the team that was deemed the RMAC Champion.
 
Torgerson, an exercise science major, maintains a 3.92 GPA and has an 8-4 record on the season wrestling at 141 pounds. The Utah native has spot started at the weight this year with six of his wins coming by fall.
 
The RMAC Summit Award is presented to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative GPA that is also competing at the site of the finals for their sport's championship. For sports that do not have a RMAC Championship event, the regular-season winner will produce the Summit Award winner. All GPAs are based on a straight-grading scale to ensure consistency among nominees. All ties are broken by the total number of credit hours completed through the most recently concluded semester.
