Athletics challenge matching program amendment.

HB 84 would have required the University of Wyoming to meet specific student-athlete residency targets before the state treasurer could match private donations to its athletics program. Starting July 1, 2024, the university needed at least 30% of its NCAA Division I athletes to be Wyoming high school or community college graduates, increasing to 40% by 2026 and 50% by 2028. This amendment aimed to prioritize funding for athletes with Wyoming roots. The bill failed its introduction in the Wyoming House on February 17, 2022, with a 35-24 vote.
