Not bad for some boys without the big bucks. If only we can keep the trend going (that would be something). We actually did split the state baseball series this year and have to play @ Unc next week.

Baseball not a revenue sport.. You put 4.3k people in the stands, that is revenue. ECU has more people at baseball games than other teams in this conference can fit into their basketball arena

No home run for you!

It's revenue for the individual school via ticket sales and revenue for merch/food sales. Not sure they even make it up w/ all of the costs.

It's not prime time 1m viewers on ESPN conference TV contract revenue. It would take a league of strictly the best 20-30 college baseball teams with the biggest fan bases to maybe draw enough of a TV audience to be a big revenue sport.

If you want highlights of tonight's win over UNC click my link!

Scroll down to the baseball archive!

For what it is worth, I have the @ UNC and @ NCSU football games as well as the home win over NCSU in baseball up as well.

unnecessary cheap shot at other teams here. hell we didnt have 4000 at some of our basketball games this year. especially when thats our season high attendance and many other games have been around 2000. I can see the fans of other teams of this conference getting annoyed with us quick.

good win though. hope we can keep it going
