Huskers Honored for Academic Success



The Nebraska women’s tennis program has been recognized for its continued success in the classroom, winning a top Husker honor in April and a national accolade in May.
 
At Nebraska’s annual awards banquet on April 28, Scott Jacobson‘s team won the 2019-20 Herman Trophy Award with the top team grade-point average (3.686) of any Husker team. The women’s tennis team won the Herman Trophy for the third straight season and the ninth time overall.
 
Two weeks later on May 12, the tennis program earned national recognition from the NCAA for its standing in the organization’s Academic Progress Rate (APR). The Huskers were honored for ranking in the top 10 percent in the APR among all tennis programs nationally. The APR provides a real-time look at a team’s academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete on scholarship.  The APR accounts for eligibility, retention and graduation and provides a measure of each team’s academic performance. 
 
Nebraska has a long history of academic success and achievement across all of its sports.  Nebraska leads the nation in CoSIDA Academic All-Americans across all sports and all divisions with 338 all-time honorees. Last fall, Nebraska posted a 93 percent NCAA Graduation Success Rate (GSR), which for the seventh consecutive year, was the highest in school history.
