Twenty-five swimmers, represented eighteen schools, earned NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships this spring. Emory University led the way with four selections - two men and two women, while Kenyon swimmers earning three awards. Emory's previous best was five selections in 2007. Over the past decade the Eagles have taken home twenty awards while Kenyon (13), Stanford (11), Truman State (10), and Georgia (8) round out the top five. Those five schools each had at least one recipient this year.
The one-time grants of $7,500 each are awarded for fall sports, winter
sports and spring sports. Each sports season (fall, winter and spring),
there are 29 scholarships available for men and 29 scholarships
available for women. The scholarships are one-time, non-renewable
grants. The NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship was created in 1964 to
promote and encourage postgraduate education by rewarding the
Association's most accomplished student-athletes through their
participation in NCAA championship and/or emerging sports. Athletics
and academic achievements, as well as campus involvement, community
service, volunteer activities and demonstrated leadership, are
evaluated.
