May 03, 2017 | Women's Golf
PULLMAN, Wash. – Washington State University women's golf program has been recognized by the NCAA for ranking in the top 10 percent for Academic Performance Rate (APR) scores in 2015-16, it was announced Wednesday.
Women's golf achieved a four-year APR score of 1000, the lone Cougar team to receive a perfect four-year score.
"Over the past four years, our women's golf program has set the academic standard all our programs strive for and I congratulate the coaches and student-athletes for this outstanding accomplishment," said WSU Director of Athletics Bill Moos.
The honor is given to programs whose multi-year Academic Progress Rate scores are among the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports. The public recognition awards are part of the broad Division I academic reform effort.
"I congratulate our women's golf program for its tremendous commitment to the highest academic standards," said WSU Faculty Athletics Representative Ken Casavant.
The latest APR score takes into account the previous four academic years, this latest score beginning with 2012-13. WSU women's golf has registered perfect single-year APR scores for each of the last four academic years (2012-13, 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16).
The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success each semester or quarter 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.
Multi-year APR scores for all Division I athletic programs, including the teams receiving public recognition awards, will be announced May 10.
