A week before Thanksgiving break, Whittier College announced it would end its NCAA Division III football, lacrosse and golf programs.
When Whittier College officials announced this week they would close their affiliated law school in Costa Mesa, students and faculty reacted with shock, outrage and some tears.
“The level of interest around football is different today than it was even a generation ago,” Santana said. Santana said the school acknowledges the decision to end the sports programs is a real loss to the school and the students, and he appreciates the commitment each of them made. Golf players said they seldom traveled out of state for tournaments, even though they were an NCAA team. When the women’s team competed in a tournament in Arizona this year, taking second place, they traveled by van.
In May, Colin Warme heard from multiple high school coaches in Washington that Whittier was going to end its lacrosse program. Then the team’s coach abruptly left. During the search for a new coach, parents and students were left with no clear answers about the program. Senior lacrosse captain Alex Coco, 21, wanted his teammates to feel like they were part of a high-quality sports program, and that included one-on-one meetings in person and over Zoom to reassure them.
