This morning in Bakersfield California, Cal State Bakersfield University President Horace Mitchell announced the reinstatement of wrestling, golf and tennis at the university. The Committee, Save CSUB Wrestling, was able to raise over $900,000.

"The great amount of funding was generated from a community which would not allow the wrestling program and its others sports to just go away and die," said former CSUB assistant wrestling coach Larry Morgan. "The catalyst of the committee to Save Wrestling at CSUB was led by team leader, NFL Super Bowl champion, and World champion wrestler Stephen Neal, followed by its great team of patrons like Vernon and Janice Varner, Craig Tobin, and Mike Stricker."
