Athletes sue Ivy League over its noscholars­hip policy

hartford, conn. – a pair of basketball players from Brown allege in a federal lawsuit that the Ivy League’s policy of not offering athletic scholarshi­ps amounts to a price-fixing agreement that denies athletes proper financial aid and payment for their services.

The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in u.s. district court in connecticu­t by attorneys representi­ng Grace Kirk, a member of Brown’s women’s team, and Tamenang choh, who played for the men’s team from 2017 through 2022. They are seeking class-action status to represent all current and former athletes at the eight Ivy League schools dating back to those recruited since March 2019.

On the court, it will be the dallas Mavericks and New Orleans Pelicans. Taking center stage, an all-female ensemble that will produce the broadcast.

It’s the second straight year ESPN has orchestrat­ed an NBA game led by an all-female broadcast crew, with this version being held on Internatio­nal Women’s day. Beth Mowins and doris Burke will call the action, with more than 70 women taking part in Wednesday’s pregame and game coverage.
