Are you saying that I should put my investing awards in the academic honors section?

You can list them in EC’s.

e.g.:

West Podunk High Investment Club. Received numerous awards for (however you describe the activity) including the ABC Blue Ribbon, etc.

If you really really want to list the whole laundry list of awards, you can certainly use the additional info section. I, however, am of the opinion that if you can’t fit it into the main section, it’s probably not worth it to mention. Most AO’s are familiar with a wide variety of EC’s and awards, and if they don’t recognize it, it’s probably not important to them.
