ANNAPOLIS, Md.—The Naval Academy varsity sports programs were recognized once again for their outstanding Academy Progress Rate released yesterday by the NCAA. Only NCAA sponsored sports were eligible.

Every Division I program across the nation calculates its APR (academic progress rate) each academic year, which is similar to a report card.

Recruited student-athletes each semester earn one point for remaining eligible and one point for staying in school or graduating. The most recent APR scores are multi-year rates based on the scores from the 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25 academic years.

National aggregates are based on all teams with usable data at the time of analysis.

Men's gymnastics, women's golf, women's soccer and women's rowing all received perfect scores.

Sports that were at least 10 points above the national average in their respective sport were: men's basketball (24 points), men's track & field (17 points), wrestling (12 points), women's basketball (11 points), baseball (11 points), women's soccer (11 points), men's cross country (11 points), men's tennis (10 points), water polo (10 points) and women's rowing (10 points).

Sports that scored at least a 995 out 1000 were: men's basketball, men's cross country, men's gymnastics, men's lacrosse, men's tennis, men's track & field, water polo, women's basketball, women's golf, women's lacrosse, women's rowing, women's soccer and women's swimming & diving.
