Says Brenda,  I think the explanation is they re trying to attract people with diverse qualities and talents, and it would go against their principles for them to say they re going to give an athletic scholarship as opposed to a scholarship to the best violinist in the United States, or whatever field that person stands out in. <br>Lindsay and Brenda excelled both academically and athletically at their respective campuses, which only goes to disprove the widespread notion that great athletes cannot perform equally well in academics. Brenda remembers,  Every year after spring break the Harvard track team would run in two meets in Houston. When inevitably we were asked what school we were from and we said Harvard, people would say,  Harvard has a track team? And of course whenever our Harvard athletes won their events, everyone was just shocked. <br>Although many superstar athletes would argue that academics interferes with their training, Lindsay says that the discipline that track and field develops, especially in regard to time management, can carry over to other aspects of life.
