Maricopa Community Colleges eliminating football programs after 2018 - Shane Dale, ABC15

Citing financial concerns, the Maricopa County Community College District will eliminate its football programs following the 2018 season. Phoenix College, Scottsdale Community College, Mesa Community College and Glendale Community College will all discontinue their football programs following the fall 2018 season. "Ongoing financial constraints, including leveling off of enrollment growth at a majority of the colleges as well as the zeroing out of state support for MCCCD has led to the need for the District to look at the prioritization of resources to ensure we continue to meet the changing educational needs of the community," MCCCD said in a statement Monday. https://www.abc15.com/sports/sports-blogs-local/maricopa-community-colleges-eliminating-football-programs-after-2018
