IRSC board to review proposal to cut swim, dive programs
Summary

The Indian River State College Board of Trustees is set to consider a proposal to eliminate its swimming and diving programs during a meeting on October 27. This decision follows a remarkable history, as IRSC's men's and women's teams have amassed a combined total of 100 consecutive NJCAA national championships. The proposed cuts are part of the college’s Athletic Restructuring Plan led by President Tom Moore. If approved, the programs would be discontinued before the 2027-28 academic year. The board will also discuss the potential move of other sports programs to NJCAA Division II and the feasibility of reinstating women’s basketball for the 2028-29 academic year.
