RIVERSIDE – California Baptist University Athletics historical year academically continued, as the Lancers announced they set new department records for grade-point averages for a semester and academic year twice in a row.
CBU updated its department record for a semester GPA with a 3.475 in the spring of 2020 to top the record of 3.415 in the fall of 2019. It gives the Lancers a new record 3.445 GPA for the 2019-20 academic year, which is up from their previous best of 3.355 in 2018-19.
The Lancers have now updated their record for a department GPA six times in the last seven seasons. All 18 CBU teams logged a GPA of at least 3.22 and 11 recorded GPAs above a 3.4.
"I am extremely proud the student-athletes at CBU that achieved this new academic level of a combined grade point average of above 3.4," said Rachel Keys, the Assistant Athletic Director of Academic and Student Support and the Senior Woman Administrator. "I congratulate each on their academic success and also want to extend my appreciation to the coaches, academic counselors and faculty for their support and guidance of our student-athletes."
Women's golf posted the top GPA in the department with a 3.95, while women's cross country/track followed with a 3.72 and women's soccer rounded out the top three with a 3.57.
The men's teams were led by water polo and swimming, with a 3.43 and 3.42, respectively. Soccer was top-three on the men's side with a 3.36.
It all came in the middle of one of the challenging seasons to date, as the university completed its second seasons in NCAA Division I and switched to remote learning in the middle of the spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
