About

Athletics

New this year! Make a gift directly to your program of choice. These gifts will be used to fund the highest priority for the team, as identified by the coach and director of athletics. Twenty percent of each gift to a specific team will be designated as general athletics support. Any donor who makes a gift of $1,000 or more to any athletics program will get a quarter zip or a polo with the team logo of your choice!

*Former baseball player and current Board of Advisors member, Rick Daubenspeck '85, P'17, will give $5,000 if we reach 500 donors!

Why does part of your gift to a specific program become general athletics support? 

No single team competes in a vacuum. Fields, medical and sports communication staff, graduate assistants, training facilities, and more are shared by teams. Directing 20 percent to general athletics support from each gift made to a specific team allows enhancement of the total student-athlete experience.

Whether used for graduate assistants in sports communications, new fitness and athletic training equipment, or to aid with team travel, general athletics support allows the director of athletics to provide resources where they are needed most and will have the largest impact.
