From the article:
Arizona State University Vice President for Athletics Lisa Love announced Friday that the athletic department is fully reinstating the sport of varsity wrestling, effective immediately, due to financial support from local civic leadership.
I have sent some inquiries to the folks at saveASUswimming.com to find out what is going on with efforts to save swimming.
"Local civic leadership" suggests either deep-pocketed donors or deep-pocketed donors who twisted somebody's arm -- "No money for that new biology building if you don't keep wrestling." (Either way is OK, LOL.)
Apparently the men's wrestling program was just full reinstated...no details as to how much money it took to get it back:
