I ask four colleges for more information to help parents and high school lifters how to be better prepared to earn a scholarship or a powerlifting club invitation.

Move over college football, college powerlifting is coming for you! OK, fine, powerlifting might not be as popular as college football, but it does provide prospective students with another way to knock down the full price of college tuition: scholarships.

This four-year journey following the development of a young athlete has finally come to a close, with many lessons learned.
