CSCAA: WRIGHT STATE CUT ‘SHORTSIGHTED’, SHOWS ‘LACK OF UNDERSTANDING’ - JARED ANDERSON, Swim Swam

A statement from the College Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) today on Wright State’s decision to cut its swimming & diving programs brought some harsh words from CSCAA Executive Director Joel Shinofield. Wright State announced Friday that it would be cutting its men’s and women’s swimming & diving programs at the conclusion of this season. That came less than six months after the school announced the programs’ eliminations in May, then kept the teams around after a massive fundraising campaign raised more than $85,000 in order to keep the programs running. That fundraising effort was coordinated by the CSCAA. https://swimswam.com/cscaa-wright-state-cut-shortsighted-shows-lack-understanding/
