"We have more teams this semester than they did in the fall," Intramural coordinator Darren Gregory said. "Especially in basketball."
Arena football and indoor soccer, two of the most popular sports are being taken out of Intramurals due to liability issues.

Gregory said that Intramurals will have a three game season and every team will go to the playoffs.
Dodge ball sign ups will be on Feb. 10.
Wrestling will be a weekend tournament and will be held at the fitness center. The deadline to be signed up and weighed in will is March 1.
