Swimming and Diving Teams Honored by NCAA for Academic Excellence -- April 27, 2007
INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana, April 27. SWIMMING and diving teams from across the nation received top honors from the NCAA in its latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores.
The NCAA publicly recognizes those teams that record scores ranging between 975 to a perfect 1,000. The APR is a rate that measures more accurately the true academic progress of each individual on a team as they move towards graduation. The measure is separate from the federally-recognized Graduation Success Rate (GSR) that does not account for transfers and those student-athletes that move on to professional opportunities.
Out of the 839 teams receiving awards this year, 38 came from swimming and diving. Here is the complete list of those programs receiving awards:
