The University confirmed late Thursday that it is investigating the wrestling team after racially and sexually explicit messages exchanged among several senior wrestlers were made public.
In the meantime, the team’s season-opening match against Binghamton has been canceled after Athletics was notified about the messages, which date back more than two years, on Wednesday.
A statement released by the University on Thursday night said that the messages sent by several members of the team are “appalling, at odds with the core values of the University, violate team guidelines, and have no place in our community.”
