The University of Northern Iowa had five programs recognized today among the 1,200 Division I teams by the NCAA for their outstanding academic achievement based on their most recent multiyear Academic Progress Rates.
UNI had five teams earn academic recognition from the NCAA - men's golf, women's golf, women's cross country, softball and volleyball. These teams have earned NCAA Public Recognition Awards for posting scores in the top 10 percent of their sport.
