Discussion
editShouldn't this be called "University and college athletics" ? I'll note that in my local jurisdiction there is a distinction between a college and a university, and the universities has US-style collegiate athletics, while the colleges do not (they have a hybrid HS/Univ system). 70.24.251.71 (talk) 05:51, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
