The Highlanders reached new heights under third-year head coach Sam Jones, tying the program record for single-season wins with key victories over Delaware State, Howard, FDU, Winthrop, Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian. We are passionate about providing our student-athletes the best experience possible. Please join us in this effort by giving today!
Your gift allows us to offset expenses for player development technology as well as a portable press box. In addition, you will help us expand travel and competition opportunities to a wider variety of off-season tournaments to enhance the athletic experience for our students.
The Kinexon GPS sports analytics software will help us boost our players' performances by allowing us to automate player tracking with live data analytics. A portable press box will provide an elevated view and protection from weather elements for our game operations personnel as well as provide more substantial storage. It can also be branded to reinforce Radford Athletics' on-site brand, allowing it to more adequately compliment the stadium and display our Highlander pride. Expanded tournament opportunities help our players adapt to a wider variety of playing environments, raises the team's competitive profile and can also be a powerful recruiting tool to help us bring the most talented and exemplary student-athletes to our program.
