I am not too sure either if any of our brothers are allowed to join any of these sports because they are already initiated with us. None of us have tried but I know one of my brothers wants to try out next year. I find this kind of funny because one of the coaches is an Alumni of our fraternity from a different chapter.
Even though Coach Wallace is a Kappa Sigma he probably won't change his stance. Has he even bothered to get involved now that you guys are on campus?

We had members of the track, cross-country, and sailing teams in my chapter before. The coaches had no problem with it, but then again their practice schedules and away time were more flexible than that of, say, volleyball, basketball, and softball.

I can understand why a coach would prohibit his/her players from becoming Greek, especially if the athlete is on scholarship. The athlete is committeed to school first, then athletics. Joining an extra-curricular could compromise that.
