OU to cut 4 teams

Post by PGY Tiercel »

OU will no longer field a men's Swimming/Diving, men's indoor track&field, men's outdoor track&field and women's Lacrosse. They will have 16 varsity teams, the minimum (So our 17 means we kick their ass :wink: ) Title IX is part of the reason.

OU cuts four

OU was facing a decreased budget due to state cuts. Rather than take the money from the other larger sports (like football which was in the red $2 million) they chose to cut sports.
