Sad news. Went to many App/Furman baseball games back in the SoCon days.

My brother got a baseball scholarship and was a 4 year starter there. This is really sad news for me

"In 2018, Furman was one of 247 NCAA schools to report a profit from baseball; Furman’s profit was the 128th largest of 941 schools."

My hope would be to limit travel, operational expenses and scholarship aid before eliminating sports.

Re: Furman cuts baseball and lacrosse
Does anyone have insight into our own finances for sports like baseball or wrestling?
I’m worried we are going to be/are in the same position as well and are holding on for dear life right now in hopes it opens back up. I really don’t want to lose any of our NCAA sports.

66 would know better than me but I think wrestling has enough support from their alumni to handle things.

Re: Furman cuts baseball and lacrosse
Major issue with wrestling, no summer camps this year. That will take a lot of money from their budget.
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.

Re: Furman cuts baseball and lacrosse
How much of that money actually went in their budget. I have always heard there was summer camps organization that ran all of the camps.
I would assume any wrestlers that worked camps got paid for that.

Re: Furman cuts baseball and lacrosse
The Camps office on campus does take a cut and covers the dorms/food/insurance. There is normally about 3-4 camps with anywhere from 200-400 wrestlers per camp.
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.
