It's like that at most schools. If American's are good they usually go pro.

What you say is somewhat true. We don't have many going pro, though, either. There are other reasons as well. My reason for bringing attention to this is that I think we should drop tennis at Tech and pick up a sport that girls from Louisiana play well. Perhaps golf. I don't want to continue to spend our tax dollars on tuition for women from overseas.

I agree, I guess we could always start up women's lacrosse.

There are plenty of quality American players that would play at Tech. They just need to be recruited.

They wouldn't have a conference to play in. The WAC supports gymnastics and swimming and diving.
