A combination of cost cutting and new revenue holds the key.

Things are looking up in the fiscal department for WSU athletics according to president Kirk Schulz. Schulz spoke to Shanon Quinn of the Moscow Pullman Daily News about the ongoing effort to balance the budget this week. In the interview Schulz says he expects that budget will be balanced within 3 years as they explore new revenue streams and cut spending.

Schulz says that they have cut costs from $3 to $4 million from the previous year. He says that athletic director Bill Moos has been able to save money through leaving some positions empty and finding ways to spend less on travel.
