ORLANDO (UCFKnights.com) – Current men’s tennis player Arjun Watane and former football player Joey Grant have been honored with the most prestigious award a UCF student can receive. Grant and Watane were both named to the Order of Pegasus Tuesday.
Undergraduate students are chosen for Order of Pegasus each year based on their outstanding achievement in the areas of academic achievement, university involvement, leadership and community service. Graduate students are selected based on the same merits as well as publication or research experiences. Because of the breadth of accomplishments required for this award, the Order of Pegasus is the highest student award that can be attained at the university.
The winners will be honored at a ceremony this spring. Grant and Watane become the eighth and ninth student-athletes to be honored with the Order of Pegasus. Of more than 63,000 students, only 20 were honored this year.
