In 2010, the United States Secretary of Education Mr. Arne Duncan demanded that the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) clean-up their act due to the declining graduation rate for athletes, particularly African-American males. According to the Harper’s study, at 50 of the most prominent colleges, on the average, African-American males made-up approximately 2.8% of the undergraduate class overall (Harper 4). However, they made-up approximately 57.1% of the football players and approximately 64.3% of the basketball players (Harper 4) with an average completion rate of six-years (Harper 4). As a result, many college coaches and academic administrators started to encourage African-American male athlete-students to major in less demanding degree

In a culture where sportsmanship is lacking, it is critical that stakeholders in high school athletics work together to reestablish sportsmanship and ethics to the forefront of education-based athletics. In fact, “ The National Federation, the governing body for public high school sports, would like for the number one priority of high school athletics to be GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP” (as cited in Churdar, 2015, p. 2). Sportsmanship means respecting the opponent, the officials, and the game.

Another Sunday, another Sunday with the New York Mets being blown out. After taking 2 out of the 3 from the Colorado Rockies, the Mets currently sit 9.5 games out of second wild card spot in the National League.

The United States also have their own form of NSAs, but are called national sports federations.
