Bohls donate $100K to fund scholarships for Wyoming's spring senior athletes

LARAMIE -- When it comes to colleges funding extra scholarships for student-athletes who have been given the chance to extend their eligibility by another season in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, Craig Bohl has taken that financial burden off his school's shoulders.

Wyoming's football coach and his wife, Leia, are donating $100,000 to the school's athletic department to cover the scholarship costs for seniors in spring sports who have indicated they want to return to UW for another season of competition. The gift was announced by the school Friday.

"Leia and I have been blessed by our time at Wyoming," Bohl said in a statement.
