What's this?

You nailed it.


As an example Duke doesn’t give out scholarships for wrestling but very possible that there wrestlers are still funded on need based scholarships because they do have more financial aid to give out for need based kids

It is definitely not a level playing field for us. Hurts a lot in sports like baseball
