From Today's Wichita Eagle:
Progress indoors -- WSU sent out a fund-raising letter in late October as part of the campaign to build an indoor practice facility at Eck Stadium.
At that time, items such as naming rights for the facility ($1.25 million), the main stadium entrance ($175,000) and the dugouts ($50,000 each) remained for sale.
That list will likely change on Monday morning. WSU will hold a news conference regarding fund-raising for the facility.
WSU announced the project in July and passed the $1 million mark in August. Schaus said there is more work to do on the $3.2 million first phase of the project.
"It's moving along," Schaus said. "There's been a consistency and progression of gifts that are moving us toward our goal. Although, we're not where we want to be yet. We still have a ways to go."
Baseball coach Gene Stephenson was out of town on Friday and declined to discuss fund-raising for the facility.
"I'll be happy to talk about it on Monday," he said.
