Arthur Ashe Jr. Sports Scholars Special Report to be published June 5, Sports Winners Announced
FAIRFAX, VA (April 18, 2025) — Diverse: Issues In Higher Education will release its annual Arthur Ashe Jr. Sports Scholars special report edition on June 5.
The edition is part of our decades-long tradition of recognizing outstanding, young minority men and women who have distinguished themselves in their academic and athletic pursuits.
In addition to their athletic ability, those named 2025 Arthur Ashe Jr. Sports Scholars have maintained at least a 3.5 cumulative grade point average, are at least sophomores academically, and have been active on their campuses or in their communities.
Of the nearly 700 scholar-athletes nominated, one male and one female athlete will be selected as Sports Scholar of the Year. In addition to this year’s eight finalists, winners from each sport category nominated will be recognized.
