USF Women's Basketball Team Receives Top Academic Honor

I am really excited to share the following news with you. We just received top honors for Academic Progress Rates (APR)!

This means we are in the top 10 percent of all Division I programs in the country!

The APR represents a four-year rolling average and provides a clear picture of the academic culture of a program. The latest figures, released by the NCAA May 7, represent a combination of scores beginning with the 2009-10 academic year.

We are one of two California schools honored, with the other being Stanford. This is huge as it measures progress in the four years that I've been at the University of San Francisco.

I am so proud!

Here is the full news release.

And here is a video talking with some of the players:
