Volleyball and Cheerleading not on the same level

Quinnipeac University, a small NCAA Div. l school in Connecticut, has decided to drop Women's' Volleyball and keep the less expensive "sport" of Competitive Cheer leading. The Volleyball team filed a law suit to save there program. It's a shame it has gotten to this point.

Yes, I know cheerleaders work hard, but it is not a sport like Volleyball. Volleyball is much more popular to the student bodies of hundreds of colleges and universities across the country. If the cheerleaders want to compete, they should do it at the club level. Volleyball, at least I believe, generates more revenue for the school than does competitive cheer leading. This is ridiculous! Cheer leading is not a sport1 Volleyball is. That's all I really have to say.
