Today the NCAA released the first batch of Academic Progress Rate (APR) numbers that will carry postseason eligibility penalties. As has been mentioned before, Connecticut's men's basketball team will be kept out of both the NCAA basketball tournament and the Big East basketball tournament for the upcoming season due to their low APR score of 889. The NCAA is mandating all schools have a 4 year running score of 930 to be eligible for postseason play.
This brings us to Marquette's performance. Women's soccer leads the way with a near perfect 998, while men's soccer is Marquette's lowest performer. The 961 posted by the defending Big East Blue Division champions is still easily above the NCAA guidelines, though.
