Health Sciences Students Awarded NSCA Scholarships

Exercise Science and Exercise Physiology doctoral students Lara Boman and Anthony Pinzone are the 2023 recipients of the National Strength and Conditioning Association's Foundation scholarships.

Lara Boman received the Women鈥檚 Scholarship; Pinzone is a recipient of the Challenge Scholarship. Both students were selected by the NSCA Foundation Scholarship Committee after a thorough evaluation process of all applicants.

Boman's $2,000 scholarship is designed to support women, ages 17 and older, to enter the field of strength and conditioning. Pinzone's $2,000 award goes to NSCA members seeking either an undergraduate or graduate degree in a strength and conditioning-related field.

Boman is studying Exercise Physiology and working as a graduate assistant in the Motor Control Laboratory. Her research interests lie in the intersection of resistance training, aging, neurodegenerative disease, and gender. She obtained an MA in Kinesiology and Sport Management and a BS in Physics from the University of South Dakota. Prior to beginning her doctoral studies, Lara worked as a visiting assistant professor and volunteer assistant track and field coach at the University of South Dakota.

Pinzone is a third-year doctoral student holding a graduate assistantship at 黑料网. His research interests primarily include cardiovascular responses to stress and resistance exercise and approaches to physiological stress-monitoring. Following the completion of his Ph.D., he hopes to work as a full-time professor and have the privilege to continue making a positive impact on the lives of students and the field as a whole through teaching, mentorship, and research productivity.

The National Strength and Conditioning Association Foundation (NSCAF) was founded in 2007 with the aim of support-ing the advancement of strength and conditioning practical applications. The NSCA Foundation is a non-profit organiza-tion committed to providing funding to NSCA members taking part in educational and research endeavors.
