Baseball is No. 1 in APR

by Rocket

Last week we reported the news of Vanderbilt's impressive Academic Progress Report success. Fourteen of our 16 varsity sports scored perfect 1,000 statistical marks.

USA Today just ran a story that showed that our tremendous baseball team had the nation's best APR score (1,000) of any Top 25 rated program. Georgia Tech was second, Texas came in third.

Our women's basketball team posted the seventh best APR score in that sport's Top 25 with a solid 990 total. Georgia's women's team achieved a 1,000 mark in a tabulation that factors progress toward a degree (eligibility) with retention of each student-athlete of the roster for each semester of the school year.
