Beavers Earn Perfect APR Score
May 10, 2017 | Women's Basketball
Oregon State registers score of 1,000 for the second-straight year
CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Oregon State women's basketball team has earned a perfect score of 1,000 in the NCAA's Academic Progress rate for the second-consecutive 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 Beavers also earned the APR Public Recognition Award last week.
The Beavers are one of four Pac-12 teams to earn a perfect score this season, and Oregon State joins Colorado and Stanford as the only programs in the conference to accomplish the feat in each of the last two years.
Oregon State had three players earn Pac-12 All-Academic honors this season, and has had a total of 21 conference academic honors over the last four seasons. Senior guard Sydney Wiese highlighted the Beavers' academic achievement in 2016-17, winning the Senior CLASS and Pac-12 Scholar Athlete of the Year awards, and garnering Academic All-America honors.
On the floor, Oregon State won its third-straight Pac-12 title this season, and made the NCAA Tournament for the fourth consecutive year. The Beavers made their second-straight appearance in the Sweet 16, on their way to a 31-5 record, the second-best mark in program history.
