Women's Tennis Earns NCAA Public Recognition Award

Indianapolis, IN—The NCAA announced Wednesday afternoon that the UC Riverside Women's Tennis Team was among ten squads from the Big West Conference to receive Public Recognition Awards for their Academic Progress Rates.

The NCAA Public Recognition Awards are given each year to teams with APRs in the top 10 percent in each sport. Top performing APRs this year ranged from 978 to a perfect 1,000, with the majority of teams earning a perfect APR.

Each year, the NCAA tracks the classroom performance of student-athletes on every Division I team through the annual scorecard of academic achievement, known as APR. The rate measures, eligibility, graduation and retention each semester or quarter and provides a clear picture of the academic performance in each sport. The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from the 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12 academic years.

Full APRs for all teams, including penalties for low-performing teams, will be released June 11.
