BOWLING GREEN — A group of Bowling Green State University baseball alumni have started a fundraising push to save their recently dropped program.
Most alumni were displeased they had no idea the program was on the brink of being cut and therefore did not have ample opportunity to act before a decision was made by university administration.
In the days that have followed, a group of former Falcons baseball players have taken matters into their own hands and started a fundraising effort that it hopes to present to the university at a later date.
"The biggest thing is it's still a bad taste in our mouth that it wasn't even an option from the beginning," said Bob Reichow, a 1996 alumnus who played for Schmitz.
