Christ. We’re like the greatest women’s rowing school in history. And they’re worried about fudging the numbers a little? Not mention row boat is a HARD and boring sport so there’s going to be some attrition.

Football teams have large rosters, capped by the NCAA at 105, and most of the women’s sports at the UW have much smaller roster sizes. Because there are so many athletes participating in men’s sports, and 52 percent of the student body is female, more women should be participating in sports than men in order for the UW to be Title IX compliant.

FYI, it appears the UW AD has corrected their practices:

People forget @HillsboroDuck that in my day we all rowed for free for UW. There were no men’s scholarships in the 90s in men’s rowboat at any school.
