An NAIA institution's softball team has made it to the postseason world series during the same time grades for the spring 2016 academic term were finalized at the institution. One of the softball players who was eligible and competed the entire spring 2016 term did not earn 24 hours between the fall 2015 and spring 2016 academic terms and will be ineligible for the fall 2016 academic term. Is this student ineligible for the softball postseason?
