Candidates must have the following: 3.0 or Higher GPA at Hargrave Military Academy; 1000 SAT (old Math & Verbal score); 100 ACT/25 Composite; on the Meritorious Performers List; have no Honor Code violations. Additionally, the Cadet must hold a position of leadership on and off the barracks; on and off the field; and have positive feedback from the Military department.
There are two award winners per academic year, a Fall recipient and a Spring recipient, who are nominated by the Director of Post-Graduate Football with the final selection made by the President of Hargrave Military Academy. The winner will receive an engraved plaque as well as have his name appear on “The Marlin Barnes Memorial Award” plaque which hangs outside Hargrave Post-Graduate Football Office.
Congratulations to Cadet Campbell!
