Editor's Note: Since publication, a handful of names have been added add a few more subtracted. The current tally of scholarships is 608.
After contacting coaches, athletic directors and principals from every high school in Utah, the Deseret News put together a list of the estimated 593 seniors from the 2011 graduating class who received an athletic scholarship.
The list does not include students who received academic scholarships or those who will walk-on. The list is meant to be a reflection of the number of kids from Utah who received a scholarship based on their athletic ability.
