NEWARK - Twenty-five years after the University of Delaware eliminated its varsity wrestling program, another effort has surfaced to have it reinstated.

Unlike previous attempts, this one involves the state government.

Delaware Senate Bill 295, an appropriations measure approved by both branches of the General Assembly at the close of the 2016 legislative session and signed by Gov. Markell, including a section calling on UD to conduct a feasibility study on bringing back wrestling.
