Big Changes for Hartwick College Soccer And Water Polo
Hartwick College has announced that its men's soccer team is moving this fall from Division I to Division III and it is disbanding the women's water polo team. School officials cited the soccer team’s declining success and inadequate water polo facilities as part of the reason for the changes. The soccer team has been a school fixture since 1973 and won a Division I National Championship in 1977 but went 7-9-2 in 2017. The women’s water polo team started in 2001.
