Edison, N.J. ? The NCAA honored 32 MAAC teams with public recognition awards for their Academic Progress Rate scores.
These teams posted multi-year APR scores in 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. High-performing teams receiving awards posted APR scores ranging from 975 to a perfect 1,000, said NCAA President Myles Brand.
