July 15, 2025 | Track & Field
MUNCIE, Ind. -- Four-time track and field All-American Jenelle Rogers has added another accolade to her overflowing resume -- Academic All-American.
Rogers, who boasted a 3.93 grade-point average in interior design prior to graduation last spring, was named among 45 top college student-athletes on the 2024-25 Academic All-America Team for women's track & field and cross country, as presented by College Sports Communicators. While competing only during the indoor season last year, Rogers was named among 15 stars on the third team.
Rogers and Emily Paupore of Central Michigan were the only members of the Mid-American Conference to be voted among the cast of Academic All-Americans.
Rogers' legacy at Ball State was highlighted by four different All-America honors as a pentathlete and heptathlete for the Cardinals. She owns MAC and Ball State records for both the pentathlon (indoors) and heptathlon (outdoors). She earned two All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships, and two at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships.
