Headcount Sport
A sport where any aid at all counts as one full scholarship.
In a headcount sport a player who takes even a dollar of athletic aid uses up a whole scholarship, so awards are all-or-nothing. Soccer is not one, on either the men’s or the women’s side, despite how often that is written online.
