Baseball community,
The current, former, and future Explorers were recently informed that at the conclusion of the 2021 season our program will be cut along with seven others as a way to better fund the other 18 Division One programs at La Salle University. This is obviously a devastating decision we had absolutely no say in. We are a proud program with a rich history in not only Atlantic 10 baseball but Big 5 baseball as well.
Outside of that, as we all know, baseball goes beyond the diamond. The impact playing this game at the Division One level can not be put into words. You grow not only as an athlete but as a person every single day you push through the grueling work outs, practices, team meetings, and study halls. Nobody else on campus works as hard as a college athlete but is is something we all take pride in.
We are now asking for anyone with the means to donate to our cause to help save our program. We owe it the one's who still have a opportunity to play this great game to not give up, because that is what we were each instilled with while at La Salle. The never give up, Philly attitude.

Sports are what keep these students engaged, create everlasting friendships and learn valuable skills for their careers from balancing school, social life and a D1 sport. Baseball is a huge part of LaSalle and brings so many people together! Bring it back!!! -LaSalle Field Hockey Alum 2015
Too short notice to lose these sports La Salle... please #findthefunding for current and future Explorers who deserve the experience that we Alums hold so very near and dear to our hearts!!! EXPLORERS ARE NEVER LOST
You have a baseball program that recently hired a former pro as a coach. The recruiting process is in infancy stages, this program will be a powerhouse in the very near future. The thought of even considering cutting this sports program is not only a travesty to the young men that play the game, but to us fans as well!
Lasalle baseball is a piece of Philadelphia history. I urge the Board of Trustees to please have an open mind and reconsider their decision. Please be open minded when presented with the financial plans that will be presented to you regarding future endowment options.
Without Lasalle Baseball, my life would be a lot different today. Thank you to all my teammates and coaches who made these some of the greatest times of my life. Many more generations of Explorers deserve to have the same.
Coach Miller and the LaSalle Baseball team are shining a bright light on the University. #SaveLaSalleBaseball
Good luck boys
