1. To answer your question, No, there is no obligation unless specifically stated in that schools by-laws or policy. There is not a mandated federal law saying pick internationals first.Is there any obligation for a state college to provide an athletic or for that matter an academic scholarship to an America vs international student?
2. As stated your chart doesn’t coincide with your question. For clarity: There are STATE colleges and there are PRIVATE colleges. The difference is in who owns (and thus leads) them and then who funds them. Private colleges don’t receive state/ tax payer funding.
The true answer is private colleges receive very little federal or state money. In fact, religiously affiliated colleges usually receive none as it is a direct conflict of interest (church and state). Private schools rely on tuition, donors, and market investment.For clarification, nearly all private colleges (often through their students) get some sort of federal funding. Hence why they must comply with certain provisions of the education act (Title IX).
Only a few accept no money from any government program, and that is often a matter of principle and independence for them.

That's not the "true answer".
Speaking directly in the form of appropriations that every state/community colleges receives from their respective states. Of course if a student gets a state (pell) grant then yes the money comes indirectly from the state. Not looking for a pissing match just stating that privates are not typically a direct line to state/federal funding.
The chart you posted shows total athletes not athletes on scholarship. Many international students come from wealthy families and will pay their own way if they can come to the United States to go to school. If a coach can get a quality player willing to pay tuition that is a great deal for the program.
The same is true for just regular students as most foreign students pay full tuition, so schools love to have them on campus.
