108 BYU student-athletes graduate in class of 2022

PROVO, Utah – BYU Athletics is proud to announce the graduation of 108 student-athletes as part of the class of 2022, many of whom attended a senior banquet which took place Wednesday night.

This graduating class features graduates from various teams throughout BYU Athletics and also features a few graduates from different eras of BYU Athletics. Two especially notable former Cougars who've obtained their degrees this year include Super Bowl winning tight end Dennis Pitta and US National Soccer Team member Ashley Hatch.

This year’s graduates have combined to major across various disciplines including such fields as accounting, bioinformatics, economics, exercise and wellness, experience design, mechanical engineering, microbiology and psychology, to name a few. A complete list of graduates can be found below; each had a graduation date ranging from December 2021 to August 2022.

“Each graduating class faces challenges, opposition and setbacks through the course of the student-athlete experience," said Trevor Wilson, director of the BYU Student-Athlete Life and Learning Center. "With that said, this class may be one of the most unique classes I have observed in my 11 years at BYU. This graduating class has achieved unprecedented academic and athletic success the past few years. When I think on the challenges presented from the COVID-19 virus, challenges with remote learning, uncertainty regarding competitions and even the overall health of everyone, it amazes me that these student-athletes produced historic outcomes in the classroom, in the arenas and on the fields. They have achieved a level of success that Cougar Nation can be proud of.”
