Success on the field can lead to more sponsors but not always. Not every team is located in an area where sponsors are. Many will not support teams out of their area and private/ parochial schools do not have access to some funding available to public school teams. Just like most teams do not build at a tech center or corporate facility. I don't think there is a team out there (students & mentors) who do not want success on the field but it's slot sweeter when you actually do the work. There is a lot to learn from not always winning too. This has nothing to do with who's "running" the team. Gracious professionalism starts at home
