Some schools, including the ivies, do give admissions weight to athletes in general, even if they aren’t recruited and won’t play for a college team.

Would a small school with lots of sports teams (e.g. NESCAC LACs) privilege athletic ECs over other ECs (among the non-recruited applicants) in order to provide a better pool of generally athletic students as potential walk-on athletes?
