In addition to advancing to the FCS playoffs for the nation-leading 10th year in a row and then making it to the national semifinals last fall, UNH was honored for having the highest Academic Progress Rate (APR) in the Colonial Athletic Association, the powerhouse league that includes fine academic schools like Richmond, William & Mary and Villanova.

In case you were curious about the post a couple of days ago regarding That Certain Nittany Lion buying his football season tickets online, junior tickets went on sale at 7 a.m. and were sold out by 7:35.Think that's fast? Just wait.
