Big Ten trims minor sport scholarships and aid
The Big Ten moved to cut minor sport scholarships from 34 to 16 while allowing limited athletic aid to extend a fifth year. Seven sports would see four track four swimming four baseball two wrestling two gymnastics one for go and tents. The plan, likely to gain final approval at the August or December conference meeting, would let scholarships be split by tuition and fees or room and board. Marcus Plant of Michigan explained the fifth year aid responds to critics claiming many athletes cannot finish a degree in four years. The current annual tender total is around 130 across all sports.
