    McCormick receives NCAA postgraduate scholarship

    Senior wrestler Tyler McCormick (Leawood, Kan.) was one of 58 student-athletes to receive an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship worth $7,500. McCormick, along with Missouri track and field standout, Tyler Dailey were two of 29 males to receive the annual educational grant. In addition, 29 female student-athletes from across the country were also awarded postgraduate scholarships.

    The scholarships are awarded to student-athletes who excel academically and athletically and who are in their final year of intercollegiate athletics competition. The Association awards up to 174 postgraduate scholarships annually, 87 for men and 87 for women.

    The NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship was created in 1964 to promote and encourage postgraduate education by rewarding the Association's most accomplished student-athletes through their participation in NCAA championship and/or emerging sports.

    McCormick, a two-time All-American at 133 pounds, holds a 3.95 grade-point average and will graduate this May with a degree in business management. Throughout his years on the Tiger squad, McCormick earned ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America and All-District honors as a sophomore and junior, as well as National Wrestling Coaches Association All-Academic honors both years. In addition, McCormick is a four-year member of the Academic All-Big 12 first team.
