POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. - Four Marist teams - men's soccer, women's cross country, women's indoor track and field, and women's outdoor track and field were honored Wednesday - earned NCAA Public Recognition Awards for their latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores.

The awards are given annually to teams scoring in the top 10 percent of their respective sports with their APRs. The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from the 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09 academic years. A total of 841 teams earned public recognition awards.

Full APR scores for all Division I sports teams will be released later this spring.
