What Recruits Should Know About Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association Recruiting
D2 programs in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association offer a balance of competitive basketball and academic opportunity.

NCAA D2 athletic scholarships can be partial or full, and many programs package financial aid to make attendance financially feasible.
The D2 recruiting calendar runs parallel to D1 but with more flexibility. Lincoln University coaching staff evaluates prospects at regional and national tournaments, and they respond well to direct contact from players who have done their research on the program. Make sure your NCAA Eligibility Center account is active and your academic records are current before reaching out.
