    C HARLOTTE B ASE B ALL ALL-TIME CHARLOttE BASEbaLL HIGHLIGHTS • For the first time in school history, the 49ers had three players taken in the top-10 of MLB's 2017 June Draft. A total of four players were taken tying the school-record of most selections in a draft with the 1992 and 2008 squads. Brett Netzer became the fourth-highest selection in program history going in the third round to Boston while Colton Laws (7th round-Toronto) and T.J. Nichting (9th round- Baltimore) completed the top-10 selections. Zach Jarrett became the fourth selection going in the 28th round to Baltimore. A year later in 2018, Josh Maciejewski (10th-New York Yankees) and Reece Hampton (12th-Detroit) made it six draftees in two years while Harris Yett also went to Baltimore in 2019. • Charlotte set a new school-record with a .971 fielding percentage in 2016 and immediately followed that season with a .978 showing to re-set the benchmark for best fielding team in the program's history. Both seasons led Conference USA. • The Metro Conference Tournament Championship and trip to the NCAA Tournament in 1993. All-NCAA Regional performance of Brian VandenHeuvel that year. • The NCAA Tournament appearance by at-large selection in 1998 (only 48 teams qualified then). • Winning a pair of NCAA Regional games, including eliminating N.C. State in 2007. • The back-to-back Atlantic 10 regular season and tournament titles, as well as automatic berths to the NCAA Tournament in 2007 and 2008, including the team's first-ever postseason wins and regional finals appearance in 2007..

  • College Fundraising Guidebook
    Dear Team Captain: So here you are…reading this because one of your friends convinced you to give up your Saturday night of debauchery for this crazy, campus wide event called Relay For Life. Well, don’t fret my dear child, because by the end of this experience you’ll be able to say you participated in the LARGEST, FASTEST GROWING fundraiser in the history of mankind; an event so outrageously primo that it raised over $405 Million nationwide in 2007 alone! Totally gnarly you think? Trust us, we already know… But I digress… so now that you’ve gotten everyone registered at 10 bling-bling a pop, it’s finally time to fundraise, or should I say intensely FUNdraise. I know your type quite well, you keep thinking to yourself “how in (enter your divine being here) am I going to raise this mullah?” Well, to quote the title of the book I just read, “you’re stronger then you think”. Okay I didn’t actually read it, but I think almost picking it up at Barnes and Nobles constitutes a reference. But my point is, you can and will accomplish it with a little bit of effort and some planning. With over 24 years under our belt, we at ACS offer you special volunteers these few nuggets of wisdom. First, you CAN raise $100/team member more easily then you think. The key is to start early , create a plan , and keep the team motivated . That’s it! This Fundraising Guidebook is designed to give you the nuts and bolts of Relay For Life fundraising by offering different ideas to help your team reach its goal.

    REFLECTIONS ON GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS: PAST, PRESENT, AND A PROPOSAL FOR THE FUTURE. A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Michael J. Callahan, B.S.F.S Georgetown University Washington, D.C. March 28, 2012 REFLECTIONS ON GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS: PAST, PRESENT, AND A PROPOSAL FOR THE FUTURE. Michael J. Callahan, B.S.F.S MALS Mentor: Shelly Habel, Ph.D ABSTRACT Intercollegiate Athletics Programs in America generally follow two models, “Competitive” Athletics and “Participatory” Athletics. “Competitive” athletic teams are well funded and capable of winning conference and NCAA championships. “Participatory” athletic teams are not well funded and are not expected to win. “Participatory” teams are centered around the idea of providing student-athletes an opportunity to compete in a sport they enjoy playing. Georgetown University, a member of the Big East Athletic Conference, is operating its Athletic Department using both the “Competitive” and “Participatory” models. Georgetown University’s marquee athletic program is Men’s Basketball and membership in the Big East Conference has proven to be very valuable for the team and the University. The exposure of the program and the University on national television broadcasts gives Georgetown a tremendous amount of publicity. Revenues from ticket sales and merchandising have also proven to be very lucrative. The Big East Conference is great for the game of basketball but the same cannot be said for all sports at Georgetown.
