but from the NCAA

Does the NCAA award athletics scholarships?
Individual schools award athletics scholarships. Division I and II
schools provide more than $3.7 billion in athletics scholarships
annually to nearly 190,000 student-athletes. Division III
schools, with more than 183,000 student-athletes, do not
offer athletically related financial aid, but most student-athletes
receive some form of academic scholarship or need-based grant.
Do many high school athletes earn
athletics scholarships?
Very few, in fact. About 2% of high school athletes are awarded
some form of athletics scholarship to compete in college.
