INDIANAPOLIS - The NCAA announced its latest single and multi-year Academic Progress Report (APR) for NCAA Division I schools today and the University of Utah was again near the top of the Pac-12 for APR success. The APR accounts for eligibility, retention and graduation of all student-athletes on scholarship, and provides a measure of each team's academic performance.
The latest multi-year APR calculations include scores from 2012-13, 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16. The average for Utah's teams was 988, up one point from last season's average of 987, while establishing a new department record for the fourth consecutive year and easily exceeding the NCAA minimum requirement of 930.
Utah had five sports (cross country, gymnastics, women's tennis, track and volleyball) with perfect single-year APR scores of 1000. The volleyball team earned a perfect single-year APR score for the fourth consecutive year, while both gymnastics and cross country teams received perfect scores for the third straight season.
Cross country and volleyball both registered perfect multi-year APR scores of 1000. Both teams, who received public recognition from the NCAA last week for posting a multi-year APR in the top 10 percent of all athletic teams in the country, are tied for the highest multi-year APR score in the Pac-12 for their respective sports.
The men's basketball (990) and women's track (996) teams have the second-highest multi-year APR in the Pac-12 for their respective sports, while football (983) and the men's golf (993) teams posted the third-highest multi-year APR scores in the Pac-12 for their respective sports. Football produced a multi-year APR ranking in the top third of the Pac-12 Conference for a sixth-straight year.
Seven Utah teams improved their multi-year scores from a year ago. Making gains were women's basketball (+10), men's skiing (+7), women's soccer (+5), women's volleyball (+5), softball (+4), women's track (+4) and men's tennis (+1). Football, cross country, gymnastics, women's skiing, women's swimming & diving and women's tennis all maintained the same multi-year APR.
