Is this a university sponsored team or a club team (private sponsorship)?

It's a PSU club team. As with all PSU club teams, the expenses are pretty much the responsibilities of the club members.

The club members, over the years, have been very nice students. They used to man a booth at the event held the morning of the Blue-White game, and I'd usually chat briefly with them, and see how they did in competitions over the past year.

My oldest grandson plays on a county wide HS Hockey club team in Nashville, TN burbs. Familiar with the large costs associated with club teams, fund raisers are vital. Equestrian is also very expensive. One of my granddaughters was involved in equestrian for three years. Club team participation is rewarding.
