Cal Berkeley drops men's & women's gymnastics teams for next year
Today UC Berkeley Chancellor Robert Birgeneau and Athletic Director Sandy Barbour announced that Cal is dropping five sports from its athletic program: men's & women's gymnastics, women's lacrosse, men's rugby and baseball. The men's gymnastics program typically have U.S. men's senior national team members on their team - on this one is Cal Berkeley's head gymnastics coach Tim McNeill and two of the gymnasts Bryan Del Castillo and Geln Ishino. Response from USA Gymnastics: [QUOTE]“We are disappointed that Cal Berkeley has made this decision,” said Steve Penny, president of USA Gymnastics. “It is frustrating to see an approach that eliminates opportunities for student athletes. There are other avenues to explore and ways to try and address circumstances such as these without taking such extreme measures.” [/QUOTE] :: USA Gymnastics :: USA Gymnastics statement regarding Cal Berkeley’s decision to drop men’s and women’s gymnastics ::
