Grand Canyon University has sent out the following press-release:
"As Grand Canyon University continues to assess its overall sports offerings, it has made the decision to discontinue its varsity wrestling program, effective after the 2015-16 academic year. GCU will honor the athletic scholarships of all wrestling student-athletes through their graduations.
After evaluating the program, it was determined a programmatic change was necessary to allow the institution to remain successful in a constantly changing collegiate athletics landscape."
Please direct any questions to Charles Hampton at charles.hampton@gcu.edu."
Grand Canyon has been in the process of entering Division 1 competition after a successful run at the Division 2 level. GCU sent a number of guys to this weekend's NCO and had success including a title from Daniel Chaid.
