There has been little turnover in the department, the newest coach (field hockey) was hired five years ago, and all staff members are relatively happy in their jobs. Granted they would like to put more wins in the books, but they believe everything is cyclical, and they will start winning again soon.
Budget Information:
The previous athletic director felt each team should receive the same amount of money regardless of travel schedule, team size, officiating needs, equipment needs, etc. Facility and field maintenance costs are covered by the institutional budget.
The department is allocated $500,000 annually, not including salaries. This must cover the following: equipment, officiating, team travel, department travel (meetings, etc.), team meals, recruiting, publicity, compliance, event management, conference fees, athletic training, post- season, conference fees, uniforms (four-year replacement cycle per team), and incidentals.
Team Results/Records:
Mens and womens basketball both finished within two games above or below .500 for the fifth straight year.
Field hockey lost in the conference championship, and returns all starters from that team. Golf finished fourth in the conference and sent one golfer to the NCAA Championships. Mens lacrosse finished one game above .500, their worst record in five years.
