Kentucky seniors Landon Foster and Jordan Swindle, and sophomore Charles Walker, have been named Academic All-District, the College Sports Information Directors Association announced on Thursday afternoon.

Foster, UK’s four-year starting punter out of Franklin, Tenn., has a 3.97 cumulative GPA as a finance major. A semifinalist for the Wuerffel Trophy, given to the nation’s top community servant, Foster is a three-year Academic All-Southeastern Conference selection and a second-team CoSIDA Academic All-America selection in 2014. Foster is also on the watch list for the Campbell Trophy, awarded to the nation’s top scholar-athlete and the Ray Guy Award, given to the NCAA’s best punter. In his career, Foster has 233 punts for a 41.8 yard average, ranking fourth in UK history.

A native of St. Johns, Fla., Swindle has been a fixture on the offensive line throughout his

career, playing in 42 games with 32 starts. UK’s 6-foot-7 offensive tackle, Swindle is kinesiology major with a 3.91 cumulative GPA.

Walker, a native of Louisville, Ky., owns a 3.97 cumulative GPA as a finance major. A key member of UK’s special teams unit, Walker has fought his way into the receiving rotation and owns four catches for 52 yards as a sophomore in 2015, with two going for clutch first downs.

It's good to see some of our players getting it done in the classroom and if you think about it that's what really counts in college. That said it sure would be neat to see our student athletes win a few SEC games.
