I honestly have no idea where the money that they generate goes to. Consider how their new basketball arena is still practically an empty hole next to Gutterson and there’s plenty of professors who are severely underpaid.

Very valid points, but I’d like to clarify that every varsity team at UVM takes part in this fundraiser in the fall. Each team gets to decide what they do with it. We’d like to devote our portion towards travel costs and additional necessities that we aren’t currently receiving from the athletic department specifically.

While that is true, ultimately the athletic director has the final as to where the funding for each team goes. It’s clear he has his favorites. In fact, our track scholarships were wiped out in 2018 as some sort of money saving initiative.

Just trying to spread the word around to support a team that receives very little to begin with. No need to be rude.
