🔼 Progress AND Perfection. Florida Atlantic Athletics continued to achieve high Academic Progress Rate (APR) numbers in the 2022-23 academic year, as announced by the NCAA. APR measures eligibility, graduation, and retention each semester or academic term and provides a clear picture of the academic performance of each team in every sport. All teams must meet an academic threshold of 930 to qualify for the postseason and can face penalties for continued low academic performance.
 
Three teams achieved a perfect score of 1,000: women's cross country, women's golf, and volleyball. This marks the third consecutive academic year in which these three reached the maximum score.

No Mo FOMO. ICYMIFlorida Atlantic fans packed the house on two consecutive nights of the Paradise Pride Tour to celebrate the 2023-24 successes and for fellowship with the coaches that they traditionally watch from the sideline.

FOMO is real, but you can see the gallery here.
