APR

The Advertiser writes there's good academic news regarding the UH sports program under the NCAA APR, though football will still lose one scholarship.

Two University of Hawai'i women's teams received perfect scores from the NCAA in its Academic Progress Rate, while the football team also improved — but still will lose one scholarship.
The football team went from a yearly rate of 869 for the 2004-2005 academic year and a loss of five scholarships, to 914 for 2005-2006, according to a UH news release.

The football team will lose one scholarship because an ineligible student-athlete did not return to school.

Baseball, which was penalized 1.17 scholarships, improved from 846 to 914 in the same time frame, and will not lose any scholarships.

Great job by the women's teams, and a big improvement by the football and baseball teams. Congratulations and keep studying!
