BYU-Hawaii to End All Intercollegiate Sports in 3 Years

Officials of the Brigham Young-Hawaii campus have announced that they will be phasing out its athletic program over the next three years.  According to the University, the resources being spent on athletics would be better used to help increase enrollment.  The school stated that the athletic department has an operating budget of approximately $1.2 million, and that money would be used to help grow the school to 3,200 students from its current 2,700 students.  The school will honor its current athletic scholarships through 2016.
