BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Enjoying continued excellence in the classroom, ten Lehigh teams have been honored with Academic Progress Rate Public Recognition Awards, as announced by the NCAA on Wednesday. Each year, awards are presented to teams scoring in the top ten percent in their respective sport with their APR. Wednesday's honor is for the 2013-14 school year.
Â
The teams recognized include: men's basketball, men's golf, men's tennis, softball, women's cross country, women's golf, women's rowing, women's swimming and diving, women's tennis and women's volleyball. Women's cross country, women's golf, women's rowing and women's volleyball have earned Public Recognition Awards each of the ten years they have been awarded.
Â
Each year, the NCAA honors selected Division I sports teams by publicly recognizing their latest multiyear NCAA Division I Academic Progress Rate (APR). This announcement is part of the overall Division I academic reform effort and is intended to highlight teams that demonstrate a commitment to academic progress and retention of student-athletes by achieving the top APRs within their respective sports.Â
Â
The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete on scholarship. The APR accounts for eligibility, retention and graduation and provides a measure of each team's academic performance.Â
Â
The 1,124 Division I sports teams publicly recognized for high achievement represent 696 women's teams and 428 men's or mixed squads, the highest ever in the decade since the NCAA began the Public Recognition Awards program. In 2014, 1,049 teams were recognized, marking an increase this year of 75 teams. The scores required to be in the top ten ranged from 980 to a perfect 1,000, depending on the sport. This year, a record 953* teams earned public recognition with a perfect APR score.
Â
The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from 2010-11, 2011-2012, 2012-13 and 2013-14 academic years.
Â
Multiyear APRs for all Division I sports teams, including the teams receiving public recognition, will be announced May 27.Â
