UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – Thirteen Penn State men's gymnasts earned All-America Scholar-Athlete honors by the College Gymnastics Association (CGA) on Thursday. Six of those honorees made the first team for having at least a 3.5 GPA.
 
Penn State's first-team honorees were Jack Baldwin, Michael Artlip, Nate Warren, Brennan Pantazis, Ethan Dick and Eric Lung. Making the second team for earning at least a 3.2 GPA were Parker Clayton, Chase Clingman, Alex Frack, Andres Perez Gines, Nick Mock, Robbie Shamp and Jalen Peterson.
 
As a team, Penn State ranked seventh in the nation with a 3.338 GPA.
 
Baldwin, the NCAA Elite 90 winner for having the highest cumulative GPA of any gymnast competing at the 2021 NCAA Men's Gymnastics Championships, made the first team for the fourth consecutive season. The recent graduate was voted to the CoSIDA Academic All-America first team following his final season.
 
The team's 13 gymnasts on the CGA All-America Scholar-Athlete list match the 2012 and 2018 teams for the most in program history.
