Holy Names has released a statement on the future of athletics, reading in part: "Like many small, tuition-dependent universities nationwide, HNU is facing financial challenges. To address these challenges, HNU’s Board of Trustees is exploring a partnership with another educational institution. ... As partnership discussions continue, we feel a responsibility to our community to be transparent about transitions that will be needed to prepare for such a change. It has become apparent that beginning Fall 2023, HNU will no longer be able to offer an athletics program. Knowing the important role that athletics has in our community makes this news difficult to share. The announcement is being made now to provide our student-athletes with as much time as possible to explore their options. HNU staff and coaches, and our entire community, are committed to working with student-athletes on their individual paths forward and ensuring they are supported through this transition." (link)
