Tomlinson-Fillippo Field
Football has been an important part of the West Chester University experience for more than 100 years. The program has a history rooted in tradition and excellence. This past fall, in honor of their personal and professional dedication to West Chester University and the football program, the Football Field at Farrell Stadium was named in honor of Robert “Tommy” Tomlinson ’70 and Tom Fillippo ’69.
The naming of the Tomlinson-Fillippo Field reflects WCU’s desire to honor the contributions of these two remarkable Golden Rams. Please make your most generous gift today to celebrate their legacies.
Thank you and Go Rams!
