Too bad the rest of you don't sponsor wrestling
I am watching ODU compete in the Midlands Championships (were are in the MAC for wrestling) against Rutgers [who is the team lead], Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Arizona State, NCState...

a rather inexpensive sport that can get your school exposure and some individual All-Americans

Yup...I was very worried that we'd drop wrestling when we started FB up.

Once we finish the new practice gym, that frees up the old gym so it could be used for lady's volleyball.

RE: Too bad the rest of you don't sponsor wrestling
we just had our 197 lb wrestler Kevin Beazley (who was invited to the Olympic trials team) just beat the #4 ranked guy from Princeton

and our 184 lb wrestler just beat the NCAA defending champion and #1 ranked wrestler from Ohio State

wrestling and tennis give the little guys shots at the big boys (with legitimate chances of winning) and with national championship opportunities

I wrestled for Watauga High, and I know the coaches at App would host a wrestling camp every year and help train students. I always thought they had a good program going there... didn't think about the implications of joining Sun Belt.
