The Georgia Southern University athletic department ranks fourth in NCAA Division I in community service hours after the Fall 2022 semester, according to Helper Helper's posted numbers released last week.

Eagle student-athletes from all 17 sports logged 8,159 hours over the semester, which trailed only the University of Miami, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of North Dakota. The numbers are a dramatic increase from last year for the Eagles as Georgia Southern had 7,000 hours at the midway point of the athletic year. 

The Georgia Southern Student-Athlete Advisory Committee oversees and coordinates the community service events for all Eagle sports, and community service is also a part of the Sun Belt Conference's Bubas Cup. 

Thank you, Georgia Southern athletes, for being GRICE GOOD in our community!
