As such, the NEC Team Sportsmanship Award program recognizes those teams and student-athletes who best exemplify these traits in the spirit of competition. The NEC honored 22 teams for their commitment to sportsmanship during the 2017-18 academic year with CCSU being honored a conference-best six times. Since the NEC Team Sportsmanship program was implemented in 2008-09, Saint Francis U has won a conference-best 37 awards. The NEC also continued its long-running participation in the NCAA’s Respect Campaign, an effort to promote an environment of respect and integrity at Conference events. IN THE CLASSROOM NEC student-athletes averaged a record 3.28 GPA for the 2017-18 academic year. All ten NEC institutions finished the year with over a 3.0 GPA and 82 per- cent of NEC teams posted a 3.0 or better GPA. A record 2,476 student-athletes were named to the NEC Academic Honor Roll in 2017-18, and the 720 tabbed to the Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll with GPAs of 3.75 or higher also set a new conference standard. The NCAA honored 30 NEC teams with pub- lic recognition awards for exceptional academic performance with respect to their latest Academic Progress Rate scores. This landed the NEC 12th nationally among all DI conferences. NEC institutions also ranked among the nation’s elite in Graduation Success Rate (GSR) figures released by the NCAA with 55 teams achieving a perfect 100 percent GSR in their respective sports and 59 percent earning a GSR of over 90 percent. Men’s and women’s basketball student-athletes finished sixth and seventh nationally in DI. NATIONAL EXPOSURE Through its longstanding partnership with ESPN, the NEC Men’s Basketball Tour- nament Championship game has been a staple of the network’s “Championship Week” programming since the 1980’s.

It was yet another strong year for NEC women’s bowling. Remarkably, five of the NEC’s seven bowling members ranked among Amer- ica’s best in the final NTCA Top-20 poll.
