    1. David and Peggy Edmonds Baseball and Softball Training Facility

      An approximately 13,058 SF indoor hitting and pitching practice facility is being built for the men's baseball and the women's softball teams. The building will consist of a pre-engineered steel structure with a partial masonry veneer. The interior will have a field-turf surface, basic high-bay lighting with overhead radiant heating and ventilation system. The practice facility will allow both men's and women’s teams to practice indoors prior to and during their seasons which occur in early spring, enabling both men’s and women’s teams to also practice pitching from dirt mounds. The new facility will relieve some of the congestion at the Field House with other sports teams in training. Currently, Hammond Construction is erecting the pre-engineered steel frame. Work on this project, designed by Perspectus Architecture, LLC, will continue through early June 2014. This General Contracting project is being managed via OAKS-CI.
