2 Oregon Ducks teams post perfect APR scores, football has lowest score since 2009-10
Oregon’s women’s golf and women’s tennis posted perfect Academic Progress Rate scores in the four-year period ending in 2022-23 and were among six UO teams with perfect single-year scores during that year, according to the NCAA’s annual APR reports released Tuesday.
Additionally, Oregon’s men’s golf, soccer, softball and volleyball teams each had perfect APR scores for 2022-23. UO had four teams with perfect multi-year APR scores and seven with perfect single-year scores in 2021-22.
Oregon football’s four-year APR score dropped from 950 to 941, its lowest since 2009-10, due to a single-year APR of 927, down from a single-year 934 in 2021-22 and the program’s lowest since at least 2007-08, prior to which single year scores were not released.
UO football’s four-year APR was once again last in the Pac-12 with Stanford (986), Utah (984) and Washington (982) as the only Pac-12 football program with multi-year scores above 980. LSU (934) is the only Power Five football team with a lower multi-year APR score than Oregon.
An APR score of 930 equates to a roughly 50% graduation rate and postseason eligibility requires a four-year score of 930 or 940 for the most recent two years.
The multi-year APR for Oregon men’s basketball increased from 965 to 976, ninth in the Pac-12, with a single-year score of 975 in 2022-23.
The multi-year APR for Oregon women’s basketball decreased from 994 to 989 and remains ninth in the Pac-12, the entirety of which had scores of at least 985.
UO volleyball coach Matt Ulmer earned a $5,000 bonus for the team’s single-year score (1,000) being at least 985.
