MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Each of Middle Tennessee's 17 athletic teams have earned a multi-year Academic Progress Rate (APR) of over 950 in 2018-19 as the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) released its annual report Tuesday.
 
The Blue Raiders' sports teams have now had at least a 930 for all its sports 11 years running, with each team coming in at over 950 (out of 1,000) in the most recent multi-year APR report.
 
The most recent APR scores are based on a multi-year rate that averages scores from the 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 academic years. Middle Tennessee had 12 of 15 sports (indoor and outdoor track count as one) with a 980 on the multi-year report, with men's cross country, softball, women's golf and women's tennis posting a perfect grade of 1000.
 
Four sports were close behind men's cross country, softball, women's golf and women's tennis with multi-year scores exceeding 990. They were baseball (993), men's tennis (993), women's cross country (993), and soccer (990).
 
In addition to high levels of success in the multi-year APR, 10 of 15 sports received scores of 970 or higher in the 2018-19 single-year APR with four teams boasting perfect marks of 1000. The programs turning in a score of 1,000 were men's tennis, women's golf, softball, and women's tennis.
 
Every Division I sports team calculates its APR each academic year. Scholarship student-athletes each semester receive one point for remaining eligible and one point for staying in school or graduating. Teams scoring below certain thresholds can face consequences, including practice restrictions and playing season reductions. Rates are an average of the past four years' performance. National aggregates are based on all teams with usable data at the time of analysis.
 
In order to compete in the 2020-21 postseason, teams must achieve either a 930 multi-year APR or a 940 average over the most recent two years.
 
Middle Tennessee had a record tying four teams recognized by the NCAA last week for earning the Public Recognition Award based on their most recent multi-year APR. Those sports were women's golf (1,000), women's tennis (1,000), men's cross country (1,000) and softball (1,000). These awards are given each year to teams with APRs in the top 10 percent in each sport. It was the seventh consecutive year women's golf was honored with the award.
