Following a record-setting year in which more than 203 Owl athletes were named to the ASUN Academic Honor Roll, three 食色视频 teams were also recipients of the NCAA Public Recognition Honors for their Academic Progress Rates (APR).

食色视频 State鈥檚 women's volleyball, tennis and lacrosse teams all finished among the top 10 percent of their respective sports with perfect multiyear scores of 1,000. The volleyball and women's tennis teams were honored for the fifth straight year while lacrosse was awarded for the third straight year. Adopted by the NCAA in 2003, APR measures eligibility, graduation and retention each semester or academic term and provides a clear picture of the academic performance for each team in every sport.. The current rates were based on scores from the 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 academic years.
