The University of Kentucky beat its own personal best with a record six teams receiving Public Recognition Awards for their Academic Progress Rate scores, the NCAA announced Wednesday.
Those six Kentucky teams are men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s golf, softball, and volleyball.
The previous school record for APR top-10 awards was four, set each of the past two years. Today’s news also marks the first time a UK squad has won in seven consecutive years, as this is the seventh APR award in a row for men’s golf.
The team you’re most interested in, John Calipari’s basketball team, earned the honor for the fourth consecutive year and fifth time overall.
