About

Your support of our facilities upgrades will enhance the experience for our student athletes and transform the fan experience for generations to come. Areas of focus include:

  • Athletics Upgrades - Baseball Facilities
    Improvements to Fox Field include moving the press box back from the backstop to allow for the installation of chairback seating and viewing areas that help upgrade Fox Field into a fan-friendly experience.
  • Athletics Upgrades - Equestrian Facilities
    Our equestrian program entered into a long-term partnership with a nearby farm owned by Patrick Henry Family Services, which is being transformed into a state-of-the-art collegiate riding facility, including footing upgrades in the ring, an increased number of stalls, and a new covered arena built on the property.
  • Athletics Upgrades - Tennis Facilities
    Relocation of our tennis courts will allow us to increase our number of courts from six to eight and provide a championship-level playing facility for our women's and men's tennis programs.
