It's truly amazing how the athletic department has supported their athletes in so many ways. It makes one proud to be a Kentucky fan!
– The University of Kentucky has a school-record three teams – women’s cross country, men’s golf and men’s basketball – that have received awards for their Academic Progress Rate scores, the NCAA announced Wednesday.
The Wildcat squads received the honor for placing in the top 10 percent of Division I schools in their respective sports. The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success by the progress of each student-athlete on scholarship. The APR scores are a four-year composite, covering the 2010-11 through 2013-14 school years, that measure eligibility, retention and graduation.
"I'm proud of what has happened on the court with the Final Fours, national championship and league titles, but I'm just as proud of the commitment our young people make to academics,” Calipari said. “To be honored in this way says a lot about their character and their drive to be lifetime learners. Congrats to Mike Stone and our academic support staff. They're the best in the business."
