Ole Miss Tied Program Record with Seven Teams Earning a Perfect Score

INDIANAPOLIS – Ole Miss Athletics once again proved excellence in the classroom after another strong report in the NCAA's Graduation Success Rate. Ole Miss recorded an overall score of 85, one point off its 2019 record of 86.
 
"We all are proud of this total team effort from our staff, coaches, administration, and faculty as we push our student-athletes to achieve their primary objective: degree attainment," said Senior Associate Athletics Director for Student-Athlete Development Dr. Bob Baker. "I look forward to seeing this number increase year-to-year as more student-athletes transition into proud, happy alums."
 
A program record seven Rebel teams sported a perfect 100 percent GSR in the latest report: men's golf, women's golf, rifle, soccer, softball, men's tennis and women's tennis. This is the 12th straight year that the women's golf team has posted a perfect GSR, as well as the seventh in a row for rifle.
 
Since 2004, Ole Miss has seen its GSR rise from 69 percent, including a recent and rapid rise from 75 percent in 2012.
