i dont have the numbers but some teams were mentioned earlier in the thread as being started for the purpos of all girl teams. i believe there was one started by CMU. there were also cases mentioned of teams funded by SWE that would have to find all new funding if they chose to be co-ed. there were also cases mentioned more recently of public schools that have both a co-ed and a all girl team.
