Wow, Men's Track is barely squeaking past the baseline. Outdoor and Indoor are 1 and 2 points over the minimum, respectively.

Historically, how has CC done?

Congrats to Women's Tennis for their 992 APR rating. They are consistently at/near the top each year, which is amazing to me since they are international players whose first language is not English (we do have a player from Texas this year however). Coach Lama does a great job recruiting scholar-athletes and focusing on academics. An example would be Franziska Sprinkmeyer from Germany who is graduated in three years with a degree in psychology. Luckily, she still has a year of eligibility and will be back to work on her master's.

Women's Swimming also had a 992, followed closely by Softball with a 986.

Keep up the good work ladies!

I'm not sure what, other than grades, factors into the report, but if memory serves correctly nearly all of the non-revenue sports used to be REALLY high in terms of GPA. I'm talking about mid 90s-mid 00s.
