As a alum of the wrestling program do not drop Rowing, my daughter rowed there it had a huge Benicia to her as all athletics do! As a former Bull wrestler and former coach at Syracuse when they dropped wrestling I can attest that it is bad for the university keep all sports! Do not cut rowing

It's not right that you are cutting their sport. My friend has committed to play at your university next year, and by cutting his sport, you aren't allowing g him to compete behave your school which he loves.

Instead of cutting teams they should have just decreased unnecessary spending from all sports.

This is disgraceful to do to student athletes at the near end of the semester. Sounds like something Trump would do.

Save these athletics programs from being cut! Strength in numbers.

Participation in intercollegiate sports is vitally important for the university experience and academic achievement of many college students. UB has a fantastic aquatic facility and should examine every option possible to maintain a men's swimming and diving team!

Swimming has done nothing but shape me as a person, taking this away from a person and a group of people who have bonded... that's insane.

As a fellow D1 Swimmer, it is unacceptable for a great Mid-Major Team to be cut in order to fund other sub-par, revenue generating sports.

Getting rid of the mens swim team and soccer team is ridiculous and it is embarassing that this was so sudden and unexpected

Sports are a great way to reduce stress in students and create a great group of friends. With sports the students are more likely to succeed as they have a place to let off steam, not think about school, and then have a clear mind to do the school work after. And if the students are in a dark place the friends made on those teams are likely to be there for them.
