APR: FAMU, Howard, Bama State, Mississippi Valley and Norfolk State Hit With Multiple Postseason Bans

The NCAA released its annual APR report on Wednesday, and HBCU were hit hard with penalties once again. Sixteen of the 36 teams banned from postseason play hailed from HBCUs, including three with teams banned in multiple sports.

FAMU and Alabama State were arguably hit the hardest, with both football and men’s basketball ineligible for postseason play. At Howard, both men’s soccer and women’s lacrosse were given level three penalties. Both Mississippi Valley State’s football and baseball teams are on the list as well as both cross country and indoor/outdoor men’s track teams at Norfolk State.

Here’s the full-list of teams banned from postseason play:

Baseball
Mississippi Valley State University
Football
Alabama State University
Florida A&M University
Mississippi Valley State University
Prairie View A&M University
Savannah State University
Men’s basketball
Alabama State University
Florida A&M University
Men’s Cross Country
Norfolk State University
Men’s Golf
Alabama A&M University
Men’s Soccer
Howard University
Men’s Indoor Track
Delaware State University
East Tennessee State University
Norfolk State University
Men’s Outdoor Track
Norfolk State University
Women’s Lacrosse
Howard University
* Waiver pending

All teams at Southern University are currently ineligible for post-season competition due to unusable data.

Despite those ugly numbers, a few teams did pull themselves out of the doldrums, notably Grambling State and Mississippi Valley State’s basketball programs.
