NORMAN — The Oklahoma soccer program earned the NSCAA Team Academic Award for exemplary performance in the classroom, the organization announced today. The award, granted for the team's performance during the 2015-16 academic year, marks the seventh straight for OU.

To qualify for the award, the team must have a minimum grade point average of 3.0 for the entire academic year. The team GPA is determined by adding every player's GPA, then dividing by the number of players.
