GREENVILLE, S.C. – Conference Carolinas has unveiled the finalists for the 2024-25 Murphy Osborne Award, and Erskine Women's Tennis' Rupal Kharb was named as one of the 14 finalists.

Kharb, a senior from Sonipat, India has played a key role in the Fleet's success in women's tennis again in 2025, at the No. 4 singles and the No. 2 doubles position. She has also been heavily involved in Erskine organizations on-campus and has helped in gameday operations for Erskine sports.

The winner of the 2024-25 Murphy Osborne Award will be officially announced on Thursday, April 17. The Murphy Osborne Award is Conference Carolinas' Outstanding Senior Student-Athlete Award.

Student-Athletes are nominated by their institutions based on their academic, athletic and service accomplishments. The Faculty Athletic Representatives (FARs) from all Conference Carolinas institutions submit institutional nominations and votes are cast by the FARs.

To be eligible for the award, the student-athlete must be a December or May graduating senior or a first-year graduate student completing athletic eligibility at the same institution as undergraduate matriculation. The student-athlete must be a full-time student at the time of nomination, must have been a full-time student at the member school for at least two years and must be a starter or important substitute in a conference sport.

The award is named for longtime educator and college and university administrator Dr. Murphy Osborne.
