We've all heard about the basketball prodigy with a full ride to the school of his dreams, or the superstar quarterback who's the big man on campus for four years without having to pay a dime of tuition. But there is hope for the rest of us looking for Sports scholarships. These  

Athletic scholarships

  put some originality back into sports awards.

• Bowling For Bucks
  Next time you're at the vending machine in your local bowling alley, you might have soda and sports scholarships on the brain. That's because Pepsi is teaming up with Storm Bowling products to distribute over $20,000 in sports scholarships to champion bowlers. In addition, the Young American Bowling Alliance itself awards about $3 million in scholarships each year. So brush up on your form -- it could be payday at the lanes. Surf www.bowl.com/bowl/yaba.
