Maun, Smith collect OCU's Jim Wade awards

OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma City University named Evan Maun the male student-athlete of the year and Sophia Smith the female student-athlete of the year in the 2022-23 Jim Wade Awards on Friday at the W. Angie Smith Chapel. 

Jim Wade Award winners annually have been chosen by OCU's athletic department as those who best represent the Stars on and off the field of competition and embody the spirit of the award's namesake, the late Gen. Jim Wade. Each OCU team selected its own Jim Wade Award winner to be considered for the overall awards. The Stars honored their latest induction class into Chi Alpha Sigma, a national student-athlete honor society as well as the Stars' most recent national champions.
