Bowling Green, Ohio—The Bowling Green State University Athletics Department posted some of its best Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores in history, as released by the NCAA today. Twelve of the department's 17 teams (indoor and outdoor track and field are grouped together) had the same or better APR as a year ago. Eight teams (baseball, men's basketball, men's cross country, men's golf, women's basketball, women's golf, women's soccer and volleyball) equaled or bettered their best APR scores since the rating system began for the 2004-05 season.
All of the Falcons' 18 sports have multi-year APR rates of 947 or above and were comfortably above the NCAA's 930 minimum score to receive scholarship limitations or postseason bans.
