STATESBORO - The Seventh Annual GUSPYs Award Show was held on Monday evening inside Hanner Fieldhouse as the Georgia Southern Athletics Department celebrated another year of Eagle Athletics. The event, put on by the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and hosted by Chris Davis, honored over 20 winners of various awards voted on by the student-athletes and staff of the department.

Each team was allowed one nominee per category with the entire student-athlete body eligible to vote on the nominees. The top five vote receivers (plus ties) were then given to SAAC for that group to vote on and the top four receiving votes (two votes per team, can't vote for own sport) were honored as the finalists for the award at the show.
