Beavers Earn Public Recognition Award

CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Oregon State women's basketball team has earned the NCAA Academic Progress Rate Public Recognition Award for the third-straight season.

The NCAA's APR measures eligibility, graduation and retention each academic term and provides a clear picture of the academic performance for each team in every sport. The top 10 percent of APR performers in each sport are honored with the Public Recognition Award.

The Beavers join Stanford as the only Pac-12 teams to earn the honor this year.

Oregon State had five players earn Pac-12 All-Academic honors this season, and has had a total of 26 conference academic honors over the last five seasons. Sophomore guard Mikayla Pivec highlighted the Beavers' plaudits for classroom performance this year, earning CoSIDA Academic All-District recognition, as well as a Pac-12 Academic First Team nod.

On the floor, Oregon State made the Elite Eight this season for the second time in program history. The Beavers have now made the Sweet 16 in three-straight seasons, and finished the 2017-18 campaign with record of 26-8.

Season tickets for the 2018-19 season are available now. The upcoming year will feature a number of upgrades to Gill Coliseum, highlighted by a center-hung video board. Oregon State will also begin charging for parking next season. For more information on season tickets and the upgrades to Gill Coliseum, click here.
