"There are many ways for boys to get scholarships besides wrestling. Many years ago I had the pleasure of attending a program led by MU's Brian Smith and he encouraged wrestlers to strive for academic scholarships since he only had 7-8 scholarships to give for wrestling each year." houndpower

YES;the chances of receiving scholarship help for academics is greater than that for athletics. In fact, if you want to just about guarantee getting financial aid in college encourage your kids to become proficient in playing a musical instrument!
