James Madison dropping men's track

Unread postby rainbowgirl28 » Fri Sep 29, 2006 8:22 pm

James Madison is dropping men's track as well as a number of other sports.

I hate it when schools blame Title IX for their inability to manage their sports properly. Obviously this is not just a Title IX issue, as they are cutting several women's sports as well...
