Men's Basketball Excellence Fund Initiatives
Travel Budget
Enhancing the budget allotted for travel opportunities would reduce the amount of time student-athletes typically miss being in the classroom due to long-distance journeys. Greater support for travel would allow for quicker trips and would help to ease the demands of the team's uniquely challenging personal and professional schedules.
Conditioning and recovery equipment
Improved equipment would ensure student-athletes are in optimal shape to compete, helping them to strive for greater stamina and grit. New equipment such as a rowing machine, rope machine, hand bike, and leg recovery system would directly benefit the training and endurance of Jackrabbit athletes.
Nutritional support
Improving the quality of the foods available to our players guarantees a well-rounded diet, in addition to saving time that they otherwise might have spent preparing meals. This positions players for better study and sleep habits and heightens the team's appeal for recruitment efforts of incoming Jackrabbits.
