In other news, Birmingham-Southern College announced its intention to drop from Division I to Division III athletics. The Panthers' baseball team finished 33-22 this season and won the Big South Conference's regular-season title. According to reports by The Associated Press, the school plans a four-year transition in which it will remain in Divsion-I. The AP reported that with an enrollment of less than 1,400 students, B-SC is the fourth smallest Division-I athletic program (VMI, Wofford, Centenary) and it will be the first school since 1988 to drop from D-I to D-III. The school, which applied for D-I membership in 1999, will no longer offer scholarships. Current baseball scholarships will be honored as long as the players are in school. However, they will be allowed to transfer without sitting out.
