About

The challenge is on for YSU Lacrosse, and we need YOU to help us reach our fundraising goals.

Your support during Penguin Day helps YSU Lacrosse provide our student-athletes with the resources and experiences they need to develop, compete and succeed, including:

  • Performance technology and resources — including JustPlay, Spiideo, Hudl, GPS tracking and other tools that enhance player development, preparation and performance.
  • 2028 Spring Break trip to San Diego State — providing a valuable competitive experience while creating an opportunity for our West Coast families to attend games during the season.
  • Team gear and essential equipment — including customized STX sticks, travel and practice gear, and on-field training equipment that directly supports our student-athletes.
  • Facility enhancements at Farmers National Bank Field — improvements that elevate the everyday student-athlete experience, with future goals including a video board and permanent field fixtures.

Every gift directly fuels the work that happens on and off the field: daily practice, strength and conditioning, strategy development and the focus and teamwork required to compete at the highest level. Your support during this 24-hour challenge ensures our athletes are ready to meet every challenge with confidence.

Step up. Make your impact. Help Lacrosse rise to the challenge on Penguin Day of Giving.

Support YSU Sports Performance This Penguin Day!

We're excited to highlight YSU Sports Performance as another important area you can support during Penguin Day!

Led by Mary Beth George, Associate Athletic Director for Sports Performance, the department plays a vital role in preparing student-athletes across all YSU athletic programs to train and compete at the highest level.

Donations to Sports Performance will help replace aging equipment, upgrade technology and provide new training resources that directly benefit our student-athletes.

Want to support Sports Performance? You can select Sports Performance from the giving options alongside our athletic teams on the Penguin Day donation page.

Every gift makes a difference in helping our Penguins reach their full potential!
