Boise State to drop wrestling, pursue baseball

What has been the goal, and somewhat the dream, for many Boise State-affiliated folks in the valley is to finally bring baseball to Boise State. And not just a club team, but a varsity sport.

Today, the school announced just that intention.

The Boise State administration has decided to move on from wrestling to bring a full-fledged school-sponsored baseball team.

With that, the wrestling squad gets the unfortunate ax. Which has to be massively disappointing, and frustrating, for Head Coach Mike Mendoza, the first year HC who replaced long-time HC Greg Randall this year. The Bronco wrestling team had finished a disappointing 2-9 this year.
