Today’s News-Leader has an interesting story about stretching athletic scholarship dollars. Those chasing the college soccer scholarship dream should know that most scholarships are partial scholarships. Only in certain sports, like basketball, are scholarships not allowed to be split among several athletes. Two of the most compelling statements in the article are:
“Every coach’s dream is a top-flight athlete who also excels in the classroom. Many athletes at local colleges receive other financial help, including academic money (via scholarship or grant).”
and
“In other words, young student-athletes hoping to get their entire college bill paid through an athletic scholarship should spend just as much time hitting the books as they do the practice field.”
Don’t miss the graphic showing how Drury’s soccer scholarship money is split.

Tomorrow the Falcons (5-0-2) will head east to take on the West Plains Zizzers (11-1-1). The JV will play at 5:00pm with the Varsity match to follow.
Players will be dismissed tomorrow at 1:45pm with bus departure set for 2:00pm.
The Zizzers have moved down to Class 2 this season and are currently ranked tenth in the state. The Zizzers have a new website and will be playing their first home game of the season. Glendale has never lost to West Plains in boys soccer, but don’t get caught thinking ahead to the boys in the yellow shirts.
Finally, since this question gets asked every year: What is a Zizzer?
