Towson is in the US, not the UK. An American athletic department with money issues wanting to fund the two most popular sports in America makes complete sense.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

That's the main reason why we cut baseball here at UNI. Didn't make us as much money as basketball and football, so it was chopped.

I'm sure that the large Irish community in Oklahoma will appreciate those uniforms.

I looked it up before I wrote that in case someone decided to take the post as serious as you did and even people in the Irish community there say that there aren't very many Irish and/or people who identify themselves as Irish.
