Brzozowski was one of only eight athletes across the conference to receive the honor.
Brzozowski is a three-time Academic All-Big 12 Swimming & Diving honoree and a 2013 Big 12 Academic All-Rookie Team selection. Majoring in nursing, the senior was nominated with a 3.945 grade point average. In 2015, she was the recipient of the Big 12's Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award, the conference's highest academic honor.
The Big 12 Conference established its Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award in 2012-13. A recipient is named in each of the Conference's sponsored sports. Each Big 12 institution nominates one individual per sport with the winners selected by a vote of the league's head coaches for that sport.
Scholar-Athlete of the Year nomination criteria includes:
• must be a junior or senior (athletic and academic standing)
• cumulative grade point average of 3.20 or higher
• participation in at least 60 percent of the team's scheduled contests
• minimum of one year in residence at the institution
