A dozen North Shore student-athletes, including those from Salem, Marblehead, Swampscott, and Lynn, have been selected for Agganis Foundation scholarship recipients. Collectively, they will receive a total of $90,000 over the next four years.
Named for legendary Lynn athlete and former Boston Red Sox outfielder, Harry Agganis, the foundation has been awarding scholarships in his name since 1958. Including this year’s recipients, the foundation has given $2.68 million to 1,086 student-athletes. Scholarship recipients receive $2,000 per year each year they are in college. There is also a President’s Scholarship, a one-time $2,000 award.
