[QUOTE="DH9387, post: 313601, member: 547"] You are correct. For most schools, these sports simply lose the athletic department money. And although I do want them due to the "fun to do" factor, I also think that adding sports, especially soccer and lacrosse, will help the Institute in the long run. Soccer is exploding in America, especially Atlanta (see ATL UTD and their burgeoning youth academy), and I believe that it could genuinely be a money making sport in the not too distant future. As for lacrosse, our club team is already top 5 in the nation and it just seems like a sport that goes hand in hand with a lot of the types of students that we are bringing in now and a lot of the schools that we want to be seen on the same level as.
