Athletics has been cut for the next 2 years. Sad end for a storied program that started with nothing and became a D2 power.

Crazy to think 10 years ago Long Island was the pinnacle of D2 lacrosse. With LIU Post, NYIT and Dowling all winning NCAA championships in the late 2000's/early 2010's. Then Dowling closes, LIU moves up to D1(not a bad thing) and now this with Tech.

Now there are just Adelphi and Molloy left.

Serious question - Will NYIT still receiving funding from NCAA if they suspended their athletic program for 2 years?

Jakester - fill me in. What funding has NYIT ever received from the NCAA?

I believe he’s talking about the revenue distribution. The NCAA distributes I believe about 5% of their revenue every year to Division II. This is spread among all university and conferences.
Which is roughly 500mil. Interesting question I guess it depends on if the university continues to pay its dues and membership fee’s?

Interesting - I wasn't aware of any revenue distribution at D2 or D3, but it was pretty easy to find in the NCAA financial statement.

For the year ended August 31, 2019:
Distributions, Grants and Scholarships
Division 2 - $13,056,923
Division 3 - $4,988,609

With over 300 D2 programs, that would average about $41k per school. I don't know what distinguishes a distribution from grants and scholarships, but once that cash is split among those three things, it's probably a pretty small amount that's discretionary to the institutions.

According to the Pace Lacrosse IG account... The legendary Coach Kaley has passed.

Sad.

Great guy and people (from the outside) may have thought he was a little crazy but did wonders for the game and the young men he coached.

RIP
