Anyone know what's going on there?  They just fired the coach after a good season.

 

Aside from that, anyone have any info about the program and facilities?

From the perspective of an alum who follows Wash U sports only sporadically, it appears that the school is putting its considerable resources behind the effort to achieve across-the-board athletic excellence on par with the school's academic reputation. Wash U teams have won D3 national championships in five different sports within the past decade, several other sports have contended, and they want the same for baseball.  

Unless someone knows otherwise, I'm inclined to accept the official version of events: they want to get to the promised land, they are investing in facilities and other program improvements, and--despite Steve Duncan's successful run--they thought a leadership change would help attain the elite status they aspire to.

Far different approach to sports than when I attended.
