Daily News | NCAA to allow merged Pa. state universities to maintain individual sports teams
Pennsylvania’s state university system has cleared the last remaining hurdle in its plans to merge six of its 14 schools: The universities will be allowed to keep their own sports teams.
The NCAA has not yet released details on its decision, but system officials were told the plan got the green light. “Intercollegiate athletics hold a special place as part of the fabric of each of our campus communities and institutional brands,” said Bashar Hanna, president of Bloomsburg and interim president of Lock Haven and Mansfield, who served as the system’s liaison to the NCAA.said last summer
Under the plan, all six campuses will be maintained, but the merged entity will report to a single leadership team and operate with one staff and budget. The mergers, which are scheduled to take effect in July, come as the 88,651-student system tries to operate more efficiently and keep costs down for students. The system has lost more than one-quarter of its enrollment since 2010.
