ANCHORAGE – Thirty-four current and former Seawolf student-athletes were among the University of Alaska Anchorage's spring graduating Class of 2026, which celebrated with Sunday's Commencement ceremonies at the Alaska Airlines Center.
 
The 29 spring graduates joined five additional Seawolves who earned degrees in December.
 
Among the 30 total bachelor's degree recipients, 24 graduated with Latin honors, led by summa cum laude honorees Logan Acheson (hockey/finance), Carlo Cordone (men's skiing/economics), Madison Galloway (volleyball/psychology), Carmen Nielssen (women's skiing/finance) and Alexandra Otto (women's cross country, track & field, skiing/international studies and political science).
 
The UAA Athletic Department thanks Northrim Bank for again sponsoring its student-athlete graduation reception.
