Gifts to Men's Basketball contribute to...
From Coach Chris Bartley:
We are now planning our next team trip to Europe, and hope to bring the team back in the next few years! The WPI men’s basketball program has become one of the best D3 programs in the country over the past 20+ years. The most important aspect of successful recruiting is the success of our alumni, and the positive impact playing basketball here has had on their lives.
The Goat Nation Giving Challenge is important for our program. We ask you to consider making a gift to make this our best challenge ever. We would also love to see all our championship teams put a challenge together among our men’s basketball alumni! Let’s get those competitive juices flowing again! On behalf of WPI men’s basketball, we are grateful for your support over the years.
From Student-Athlete Aidan Callahan '25:
"The team has been a defining part of my WPI experience. From my recruiting visit, I could see how close-knit and connected everyone on the basketball team was, and that sense of camaraderie was a major factor in why I chose to come to WPI.
Receiving donations from our WPI Men’s Basketball family means a lot to our entire team. Every contribution is deeply appreciated and helps support needs like pre-game meals, team gear, and most recently, our life-changing trip to Europe. Everyone connected to the program is forever part of the WPI culture, and this is reflected in the continued generosity and support we receive.”
From Alumni Athlete Ryan Cain ‘07:
"I had such a great experience as a student-athlete at WPI, I wanted to remain connected to the Men’s Basketball program. I now coach full time and help current student-athletes have the best possible experience. As an alum, I know there were lots of people who supported the program during my days as a student-athlete that allowed me to have a first-class student-athlete experience. I am happy to be part of a passionate and connected alumni group that helps today’s student-athletes have the same and hopefully better experience."
