RAC donations increase scholarship funding and defer some of the academic costs associated with providing our student-athletes with one of the finest educations Virginia has to offer. In addition to scholarship support, private dollars enhance current venues, build state-of-the-art facilities and allow our students to compete at the Division I level. Join today.
