Oregon State earns NCAA academic honor for third-straight season
CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Oregon State women's basketball team has earned the NCAA Academic Progress Rate Public Recognition Award for the third-straight season.
Â
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.
Â
The Beavers join Stanford as the only Pac-12 teams to earn the honor this year.
Â
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.
Â
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.
