The University of Saint Katherine in San Marcos, California ceased all operations as an institute today. RTS has obtained an email sent to all employees terminating them saying the institute could “no longer meet their financial obligations” and would be filing for bankruptcy.
No warning was given to coaches and athletes within the athletic department before the email was sent out. USK fielded 13 athletic teams and were members of the California Pacific Conference in the NAIA. The Firebirds Softball Squad just completed their season on Sunday with a 9-30 record.
