<div class="payload-richtext">ROSEMONT, Ill. — [February, 10, 2026] — The Big Ten Conference Student-Athlete Issues Commission (SAIC) today <a href="https://img.boostsport.ai/boost-cms/Big%20Ten%20Conference%20Statement%20Against%20Prop%20Betting.pdf">
 sent a letter to NCAA President Charlie Baker
 </a> urging the NCAA to continue pushing for limitations or the outright elimination of proposition (“prop”) betting involving individual student-athletes competing in college athletics. The letter reinforces the Big Ten Conference’s unwavering commitment to protecting the well-being and safety of student-athletes across all 18 Big Ten campuses, and the integrity of intercollegiate athletics.“The Big Ten Conference is proud to support our student-athletes in calling for the restriction or elimination of individual proposition wagers on college athletics,” said Big Ten Conference Commissioner Tony Petitti. "The Big Ten Conference appreciates the NCAA’s effort to eliminate these wagers and will continue to assist student-athletes as they deal with the challenges that result from proposition bets in college sports.”President Baker recently sent letters to the <a href="https://www.ncaa.org/news/2026/1/14/media-center-ncaa-urges-federal-agency-to-suspend-college-sport-prediction-markets.aspx">
 Commodity Futures Trading Commission
 </a> and to <a href="https://www.ncaa.org/news/2026/1/15/media-center-ncaa-urges-gambling-commissions-to-eliminate-prop-bets.aspx">
 State Gambling Commissions 
 </a>calling for amended state laws and regulations to better-protect student-athletes.The letter from the Big Ten Conference SAIC outlines the growing concerns around the rise of individual performance prop wagering in college sports, including:<ul class="list-bullet"><li
 class=""
 style=""
 value="1"
 >Increased harassment student-athletes experience because of wagers on individual-performance proposition wagers</li><li
 class=""
 style=""
 value="2"
 >Negative impact individual-performance proposition betting has on student-athletes’ mental health</li><li
 class=""
 style=""
 value="3"
 >Accusations of impropriety, even when unfounded, damage the student-athlete experience</li><li
 class=""
 style=""
 value="4"
 >Potentially jeopardizing the integrity of athletic competition</li></ul>“While we understand that sports betting is becoming increasingly more common across the country and allows for states to generate increased tax revenue, prop betting represents unique risks at the college level,” the Big Ten Conference Student-Athlete Issues Commission wrote. “We believe protecting student-athletes must be a priority. Limiting or eliminating prop betting on college athletics would be a meaningful step toward reducing harassment, protecting mental well-being, and preserving the integrity of college competition.”The Big Ten Conference SAIC was founded in 1994. SAIC members take an active role in monthly meetings discussing the issues most important to Big Ten Conference student-athletes and highlighting ongoing initiatives on their respective campuses. SAIC executive leadership members also represent Big Ten student-athletes in front of the Conference’s Joint Group council and represent the Big Ten Conference on the NCAA’s Division I Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, where they review NCAA activities, proposed legislation and offer feedback on behalf of the Big Ten’s student-athletes.  Student-athletes are nominated by their institution and appointed by the Conference’s Joint Group Executive Committee to serve on the commission for one academic year. The Big Ten Conference SAIC members signing the letter include:<ul class="list-bullet"><li

<div class="payload-richtext">Big Ten Conference Statement on Anticipated SCORE Act Vote: As the House prepares to vote on the SCORE Act, the Big Ten remains steadfast in its support of this landmark legislation.  The SCORE Act enshrines important student-athlete protections into federal law, fortifies the educational mission of college sports, makes it possible for everyone to play by the same rules, and protects the ongoing funding structure for women's and Olympic sports, a Big Ten priority.  Countless stakeholders have come together from a wide range of perspectives, sports, conferences, and institutions to make the SCORE Act a reality and we look forward to its passage in the U.S. House of Representatives.</div>

Big Ten Conference Statement on Anticipated SCORE Act Vote

<div class="payload-richtext">ROSEMONT, Ill. - The Big Ten Conference announced the 2025 Volleyball All-Big Ten Teams and individual honors on Tuesday, chosen by a vote of the conference’s 18 head coaches and an additional media vote for Coach of the Year. Nebraska junior setter Bergen Reilly was selected as Player and Setter of the Year, while Husker head coach Dani Busboom Kelly was recognized as the Big Ten Coach of the Year by both the coaches and media. Penn State’s Gillian Grimes was named Libero of the Year and Oregon’s Alanah Clemente was chosen as Freshman of the Year.  Reilly becomes the first Nebraska player to be named Player and Setter of the Year and first since Minnesota’s Samantha Seliger-Swenson earned both honors in 2018. It’s only the third time in conference history that a player has swept both awards, with the other instance coming in 2014 from Wisconsin’s Lauren Carlini. With this year’s recognition, Reilly becomes a three-time Big Ten Setter of the Year and joins Wisconsin’s Sydney Hilley (2019–21) as just the second setter to win the award in three straight seasons.  In her first season leading Nebraska, Busboom Kelly guided the Huskers to a 30-0 overall record and a 20-0 mark in conference play, culminating with the program’s sixth Big Ten Championship. Busboom Kelly became the first-ever Big Ten head coach to win a conference championship in their inaugural season. The Huskers remained atop the AVCA National Rankings throughout the entirety of the regular season and will be the No. 1 overall seed in the upcoming NCAA Tournament.  Grimes has led the Penn State defense with 3.68 digs per set throughout the regular season and collected the fifth defensive honor for Penn State and first since 2019. Grimes has started 94 consecutive matches at libero for the Nittany Lions and ranks fourth in program history with 1,615 career digs. Grimes was selected to the All-Big Ten First Team.  Clemente becomes the first Oregon recipient of a Big Ten individual honor after a standout season that featured a team-leading 412 kills (3.89 kills/set) on a .269 hitting percentage, 51 service aces, 124 digs and 69.0 total blocks (0.65 blocks/set). Clemente was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week twice during the regular season and also earned a spot on the All-Big Ten First Team and All-Freshman Team.  Reilly was one of nine unanimous selections on the All-Big Ten First Team, joined by Husker teammates Andi Jackson and Harper Murray, Michigan’s Allison Jacobs, Minnesota’s Julia Hanson, Penn State’s Kennedy Martin, Purdue’s Kenna Wollard, USC’s London Wijay and Wisconsin’s Mimi Colyer.  The Big Ten recognized nine all-freshman selections and 18 Sportsmanship Award honorees. The student-athletes chosen for the sportsmanship award are individuals who have distinguished themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behavior. These student-athletes must also be in good academic standing and have demonstrated good citizenship outside of the sports competition setting.  The complete list of the 2025 postseason awards can be found below.  2025 BIG TEN VOLLEYBALL POSTSEASON HONORS     Player of the Year: Bergen Reilly, Jr., S, Nebraska  Setter of the Year: Bergen Reilly, Jr., Nebraska  Libero of the Year: Gillian Grimes, Sr., Penn State  Freshman of the Year: Alanah Clemente, OPP, Oregon  Coach of the Year (Coaches & Media): Dani Busboom Kelly, Nebraska        ALL-BIG TEN FIRST TEAM*    Avry Tatum, Sr., OPP, Indiana  Teodora Kričković, Fr., S, Indiana  Candela Alonso-Corcelles, Sr., OH, Indiana  ALLISON JACOBS, Gr., OH, Michigan  JULIA HANSON, Sr., OH, Minnesota  Rebekah Allick, Sr., MB, Nebraska  ANDI JACKSON, Jr., MB, Nebraska  HARPER MURRAY, Jr., OH, Nebraska  BERGEN REILLY, Jr., S, Nebraska  Alanah Clemente, Fr., OPP, Oregon  Valentina Vaulet, Jr., OH, Oregon  Gillian Grimes, Sr., L, Penn State  KENNEDY MARTIN, Jr., OPP, Penn State  Taylor Anderson, Jr., S, Purdue  Grace Heaney, R-So., OPP, Purdue  KENNA WOLLARD, Jr., OH, Purdue  Cheridyn Leverette, Sr., OH, UCLA  Lola Schumacher, So., L, UCLA  Marianna Singletary, Jr., MB, UCLA  Reese Messer, Fr., S, USC  LONDON WIJAY, So., OH, USC  Kierstyn Barton, Jr., OH, Washington  Carter Booth, Sr., MB, Wisconsin  MIMI COLYER, Sr., OH, Wisconsin  Charlie Fuerbringer, So., S, Wisconsin    ALL-BIG TEN SECOND TEAM*    Taylor de Boer, R-So., OH, Illinois  Kenna Phelan, Jr., S, Illinois  Jaidyn Jager, Fr., OH, Indiana  Claire Ammeraal, Sr., S, Iowa  Milana Moisio, Sr., L, Iowa  Serena Nyambio, Sr., MB, Michigan  Karolina Staniszewska, Jr., OH, Michigan State  Stella Swenson, R-Fr., S, Minnesota  Taylor Landfair, Sr., OH, Nebraska  Laney Choboy, Jr., L, Nebraska  Ayah Elnady, Gr., OH, Northwestern  Maggie Mendelson, Sr., MB, Penn State  Akasha Anderson, Sr., OH, Purdue  Ryan McAleer, So., L, Purdue  Leah Ford, R-So., MB, USC  Taylor Deckert, Fr., L, USC  Zoria Heard, Sr., L, Washington       ALL-FRESHMAN TEAM*   Alyssa Aguayo, OH, Illinois  Teodora Kričković, S, Indiana  JAIDYN JAGER, OH, Indiana  Stella Swenson, S, Minnesota  Carly Gilk, OPP, Minnesota  Virginia Adriano, OPP, Nebraska  Alanah Clemente, OPP, Oregon  Reese Messer, S, USC  Abigail Mullen, OPP, USC  Kristen Simon, L, Wisconsin           SPORTSMANSHIP HONOREES Cari Bohm, Sr., MB, Illinois  Luca Fickell, Jr., S, Indiana  Milana Moisio, Sr., L, Iowa  Alex McGillivray, Jr., L, Maryland  Sydney Schnichels, R-So., OPP, Michigan  Danyle Courtley, Gr., OH, Michigan State  Lauren Crowl, R-Sr., OPP, Minnesota  Maisie Boesiger, Sr., L, Nebraska  Drew Wright, Jr., L, Northwestern  Kamiah Gibson, Sr., S, Ohio State  Maya De Los Reyes, Sr., L, Oregon  Addie Lyon, Gr., S, Penn State  Bianka Lulić, R-So., MB, Purdue  Zora Hardison, Jr., MB, Rutgers  Gala Trubint, Sr., L, USC  Kate Duffey, So., S, UCLA  Elise Hani, Jr., MB, Washington  Alicia Andrew, R-Sr., MB, Wisconsin  * - Additional player(s) due to tie in voting    ALL CAPS denotes unanimous selection  </div>
