In '11-'12 three sports made money, football, baseball, and gymnastics.
They've been quite successful in making gymnastics a Friday night "thing". Not unusual to have 5-7000 people at those meets. They can probably make softball profitable too.

Extremely popular for people with their daughters. Only about an hour long, they do a good job with jumbotron for little kids and only ~$5/ticket.


If you live in the area, it is a fun & cheap "big event" to go to with kids.

They also do more camps and clinics than any other sport by a ton. I think they also get credited with money made from the open tumble nights at the womens center.
