Men’s wrestling and women’s bowling will be added to Baker University’s athletic department starting in fall 2009, increasing the Wildcats’ total varsity sports offerings to 21, Baker athletic director Dan Harris has announced.

A head wrestling coach will be hired in fall 2008 to recruit, schedule and market the program throughout the wrestling community.

Baker will become the third four-year university in Kansas and the third school in the Heart of America Athletic Conference to offer wrestling. Fort Hays State and Newman University are the other Kansas schools with wrestling programs. Other HAAC schools with wrestling are Lindenwood and Missouri Valley.

Baker plans to hire a bowling coach in spring 2009.
