Xavier rifle program axed

Article Abstract:

Xavier University cited four main factors in the decision to cut the two-time NCAA championship team of the Ohio school's championship-winning rifle team. The team was cut, as it required significant renovations to meet modern standards, budgetary cuts, and a belief by Xavier's administration that rifle's position as an NCAA sport is no longer secure.
