Today we're going to look at the MAAC. For being a bunch of pretty urban schools that are at least loosely based around NYC, it's pretty impressive that all of these schools play varsity baseball. A lot of schools in the same sort of position just decide they don't have the real estate to invest in building and maintaining a baseball stadium, especially since it's not exactly a money maker at most schools. I'm sure at most schools, baseball is lucky to break even. So good on everybody in this conference for keeping their teams going and giving students a chance to be athletes, and to give students another entertainment option in the spring.
