Athletic association investigates Three Rivers

POPLAR BLUFF, Mo. (AP) — The National Junior College Athletic Association is looking into Three Rivers Community College.

The school’s president, Joe Rozman, said Thursday that the organization has asked to see documents on the creation of the Three Rivers Booster Club and the club’s collections and expenses for the past three years.

The association will review NJCAA-mandated scholarships, including the names of athletes who received scholarships and the funding source. It will also look at related audits for the Booster Club and the men’s and women’s basketball program for the 2008-09 school year.

The school said it will turn over information by Nov. 3.
