I'm not sure of that, but I can tell you the numbers stayed the same (around six/10 girls, 20ish guys) my entire time there

No one was really happy since no one got full attention - there was never a complete staff with you at meets since they were split and as a light weight, we rotated daily into the girls mat to work with them (which I had no problem with, but that's not what we signed up for).

A funny story with it, first meet of the year is the Michigan State Open and we get one assistant coach for it (rest of staff is with the girls), we have an exchange student from the UK, his first match in America is against Ohio State and he has no coach in his corner

You took your newer/young NAIA team to the MSU Open?

Wasn’t a coach, was an athlete on that team

And yes…… not the best time

At my small NAIA college in 2013, we had both a men's and women's and both shared the same coaching staff and practices so I would say both teams were setup for failure to some degree

That’s my biggest frustration so far with my girls team. If it was in the fall I could give them the focus they need. My “girls” coach is there but doesn’t know squat so they aren’t getting all the help they could. I’m trying and they’re improving.

But it’s very clear that when Illinois finally added it after fighting it tooth and nail. They made it super inconvenient and and an extra burden to do in a bunch of ways on purpose.. then have gone “well we gave you wHAt yOu wANtEd”

its.. irksome
