Strong ticket sales gains $750,000 surplus for Tech

From a football/men’s basketball perspective, let’s just say that the 2015-16 year at Georgia Tech has been a bit of an underachievement.

There is at least one positive that can be taken from the sports, though. Due to strong ticket sales in both sports, the Georgia Tech Athletic Association is projecting a net income of just under $750,000 for the 2016 fiscal year. The original forecast was for the department to break even. Associate athletic director for finance and administration Marvin Lewis provided the update at the association’s recent quarterly board meeting.

“Our ticket sales has been really positive,” athletic director Mike Bobinski said.
