98. Wrestling is one of _very_ few shrinking men's sports.

According to NCAA: http://www.ncaa.org/library/research/participation_rates/1982-2002/participation.pdf

Sorry to hear your sport is in decline. Most others have more teams participating since 1982. Soccer, Lacrosse, Golf, Tennis, Indoor and Outdoor Track, Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country have all added teams in that time period.

You haven't provided any credible reason to believe that Title IX is a problem.

Edit: I'm looking overall team numbers on page 140 of the above report
