Five U of L programs among nation’s APR leaders

From U of L:

Five University of Louisville athletics teams are among the nation’s leaders within their sports in the most recent multiyear Academic Progress Rate (APR) data, the NCAA released on Wednesday.

UofL’s men’s and women’s basketball, women’s cross country, and men’s and women’s golf are among the top-10 percent in their respective sports in the latest APR, which measures academic eligibility, retention, and graduation for student-athletes.

It is the sixth-straight year that the Cardinals’ men’s basketball team has received public recognition through the NCAA Academic Performance Program. Louisville is one of just nine schools in the nation, including only three from Power 5 conferences, which has earned the recognition each of the last six years.
