A California teenager was admitted to UCLA in 2016 as part of the recent college admissions scandal and named to the 2017 soccer team despite not having any playing experience, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Lauren Isackson was accepted to the university in June 2016 as a recruited soccer player after her parents, Bruce and Davina, allegedly paid for her admittance with Facebook stock. A student-athlete admissions committee at the school required Isackson to play for at least one year, according to an indictment.
Isackson's profile on the Bruins' 2017 women's soccer team roster lists no statistcs for the season but lists her as a midfielder.
