KU Women’s athletics seek more funds from men's program
Sharon Drysdale, KU assistant professor and coordinator, says the women's intercollegiate program needs more money to grow beyond its five year existence. The Student Senate has funded $9,000 this year, far short of the $156,000 for the men, limiting travel and participation for female athletes. She notes better athletes and bigger ambitions require increased support.
