DIVISION I

Board of Directors focuses on enhancement of academics

The Division I Board of Directors at its April 25 meeting adopted a four-pronged resolution to ensure enhanced performance in the classroom for Division I student-athletes.

The Board also adopted several amateurism proposals at its meeting, although it tabled one part of the amateurism package to give Division I members more time to discuss the ramifications of restrictions on pre-enrolled student-athletes.
