Gonzaga University president Dr. Thayne McCulloh led a dedication ceremony celebrating the new Scott and Liz Morris Family Indoor Training Facility at the Patterson Baseball Complex. The project includes the new Danny Evans clubhouse locker room, an indoor practice facility, and recruiting gallery. 

"This facility is really for those of us at Gonzaga, and a story of what can be achieved when individuals who have deep connections and personal passions and a deeper commitment to one another come together and make things happen," McCulloh said. 

The first-class facility provides the student-athletes a space to train and improve at a high level during the winter months in the Inland Northwest. 

"Gonzaga has a rich tradition as one of the best baseball programs on the west coast and we are honored to support the Program," donor Scott Morris said. "This facility will continue to help Gonzaga compete on a national basis." 

The new locker room is nearly 4,000 square feet and the training facility has 11,500 square feet of new space. After renovations, the upgraded complex will have over 35,000 square feet of space. [GoZags.com]


If you’ve driven down Wisner Boulevard through New Orleans City Park lately, you’ve probably noticed a lot of work happening at Pan American Stadium.

The park and New Orleans Saints are making needed improvements to the facility where hundreds of student and adult athletes compete each year.

The park’s athletic director Aubrey Champion says crews are now working on phase one of a $3.1-million facelift at Pan-Am. [WWLTV]


Oregon Tech is fundraising for an exciting new project.

Glen and Sherry Thomet graciously donated $1 million to kick off fundraising for a new athletics fieldhouse at the school’s Klamath Falls campus.

The project will include an 8,500-square-foot building offering indoor practice for student-athletes during all seasons.

“The new fieldhouse at Oregon Tech will help our student-athletes train and practice indoors, away from bad weather,” said Oregon Tech athletic director John Van Dyke. “It will give them a year-round place to gather and work on their skills, and the Thomet’s gift is a crucial launch of this project and is greatly appreciated.” [KOBI 5]
