Wesley College to discontinue sports at the end of the year
DOVER — Wesley College told its athletics staff on Monday afternoon that the school will be discontinuing its NCAA Division III sports programs at the end of the school year.
The decision comes as the entire college is transitioning to becoming part of Delaware State University, which entered an agreement to take over some aspects of the Dover school last year.
Wesley president Dr. Robert Clark said that the decision was made by Delaware State.
“Wesley College is fully committed to Division III Athletics and looks forward to the opportunities this Spring holds for our student-athletes and Campus community,” Clark said in a statement. “As far as next year, and post-acquisition of Wesley College, the decision regarding Division III Athletics lies with Delaware State University and questions regarding that decision should be addressed with them.”
