LUBBOCK, Texas - Texas Tech senior closer Steve Rowe has earned a $5,000 postgraduate scholarship from the NCAA for his outstanding efforts in the classroom.
Rowe, a second-team Verizon Academic All-America selection this past season, is a true example of the term student-athlete as he maintains a high GPA, is outstanding athletically and donates his spare time for community service work.
He helped lead the Red Raiders to a 42-20 overall record and a second place finish in the Big 12 Conference in 2002. Rowe led the Tech pitching staff with a 10-2 record with eight saves and a 1.51 ERA and was named First-Team All-Big 12 by the league coaches and by numerous media organizations.
Rowe is currently in the Texas Rangers organization where he is playing rookie ball in the Gulf Coast League.
The scholarship can be used for full or part-time postgraduate study at the university or professional school of his choice. For more information, please log on to www.ncaa.org.
