The addition of two natural grass practice fields for football and another for field sports will significantly enhance the development of our student-athletes and provides the best chance for them to stay healthy during practice. Fewer injuries occur on natural grass practice fields than artificial surfaces and natural grass is the surface most of our field sports compete on throughout their seasons.

Once the project is complete, these three new fields, along with Perry Field, will provide greater flexibility for our coaches and student-athletes to balance training and development with their academic commitments.
