A announcement was made by Lock Haven University President Dr. Keith Miller to re-instate the LHU Baseball program. After countless meetings with administrators, players, coaches, parents, and students the university has decided to switch the decision it made earlier this month.
This is great news for the program, but also the university. No one ever wants to see a program shutdown due to economic reasons. Below is the official statement by LHU's President.
Statement from Lock Haven University President Keith T. Miller:
Based on the considerations of the student government, and in communication with the director of athletics, I have determined to continue baseball at Lock Haven University through the 2009-10 season. During this period, I hope that a way can be found to fund baseball in this extremely difficult economic environment. Details to continue the baseball program are being worked out. The support and interest of parents, alumni and the community are very much appreciated. I thank the LHU students for their outpouring of support for their classmates and the university.
