The Wright State swimming and diving team is fighting to save their program, which they have until June 30, 2017, to raise $85,000, which will help the program stay alive for at least one more season. The decision to cut the program came as a financial situation for the university, as it would save them nearly $500,000.
As of June 13, the program has received $27,921 in donations to save their program, including donations from conference rivals, Oakland University.
WAYS TO DONATE:
- Online at: http://www.cscaa.org/savewrightstate
- The CSCAA will process check payments at C/O Greg Lockard, CSCAA, Attn: Wright State Fund, PO Box 121, Essex Fells, NJ 07021.
While the school is fighting for their program, the swimmers and divers want to show everyone why their program matters.
