AP: Quinnipiac adds women’s rugby under Title IX plan

The Associated Press published Quinnipiac adds women’s rugby under Title IX plan.

During the trial, school officials hinted they might be forced to drop competitive cheerleading if it was not found to be a sport.

Instead, the school plans to rename the squad the stunts and tumbling team and keep it as a varsity sport. The school said it would revise its compliance plan should stunts and tumbling be recognized by college sports’ governing body, the NCAA, as an emerging sport before the 2011-12 school year.
