How about the University of Louisville, which added three women's sports, along with cutting the men's indoor track program. Then there is New Mexico State University, which dropped its men's track and field and swimming programs. The cuts were made to reduce the athletic department's budget deficit by two-thirds. In this case, the university had budget problems. However, based upon the landmark Brown University decision, cutting women's programs is not possible, leaving men's teams the target for such cost cuts.
Wrestling programs continue to be in danger.
Such is the case at Div. Chicago State University, where the athletic director has decided to drop the wrestling team. According to the sports information director, the decision has been made but a press release has not yet been written. If this decision stands, it is another major loss for college wrestling, which is down to about 95 Div. This is the time that athletic departments must make budget and planning decisions for the next year.
