BATON ROUGE – A school-record 10 LSU teams posted an Academic Progress Rate score of 1,000 and finished among the top 10 percent within their sport nationally, the NCAA announced on Tuesday.
Overall, LSU's 21 sports teams combined for a 985 APR score as the Tigers continue to demonstrate exceptional work in the classroom. The APR scores were announced this week as part of the NCAA's Academic Performance Program.
"It requires extraordinary drive and commitment to excel in the classroom and to be elite on the field of play," LSU Athletic Director Scott Woodward said.
