Benefits of Project
  • We gain a second baseball field.
  • We add a new natural grass field for football and lacrosse.
  • The project adds increased flexibility for scheduling games and practices for fall and spring sports.
  • The new FieldTurf® fields are playable in all but the most inclement of fall and spring weather.
  • The new FieldTurf® fields have the performance and appearance of natural grass but are unaffected by weather, require minimal maintenance, and can withstand very heavy use.
  • The FieldTurf® package we selected provides for the highest degree of safety.
  • The project enables us to maximize the School's athletic field space.
What's Next
A Capital Campaign Committee has been formed and is now in a "Quiet Phase." The School is planning for as comprehensive a campaign as possible, with new academic initiatives, a new athletic center, and increased endowment funds for faculty and students being considered. As these plans are developed and the campaign continues to evolve, we look forward to sharing the details with you.
