University of Kentucky Athletics set a school record with seven teams – men's and women's basketball, men's and women's golf, gymnastics, women's swimming and diving and volleyball – receiving Public Recognition Awards for their Academic Progress Rate scores, the NCAA announced Tuesday.
The Wildcat squads received the honor for placing in the top 10% of the 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 measures academic eligibility, retention and graduation. The scores are a four-year composite, covering the 2015-16 through the 2018-19 school years.
Having seven teams earn the APR top-10 award breaks the school record of six that was set each of the last two years. It's also the first time that a UK squad has won in nine consecutive years, as this marks nine in a row for men's golf. Men's basketball is a seven-year winner, including the last six years in a row. Women's golf and volleyball are four-year winners. Women's basketball earned the award for the third year in a row and it is the second top-10 honor for gymnastics. It is the first award for women's swimming and diving.
