Baseball Stadium

Immaculata University officially dedicated its newest athletic facility on Monday afternoon, April 18, 2011 in a ceremony to bless the Baseball Stadium prior to the baseball game against Eastern.

Construction for the new baseball stadium began in February 2010 and was completed on November 29, 2010. Its 688-seat grandstand overlooks a beautiful Kentucky blue grass playing field. An automatic irrigation system, drainage system and rain cover mats ensure optimal field conditions. The stadium has major-league style backstop nettings and extra-large recessed dugouts, which allow for a clean line of sight from any seat. A stately press box with a roof-top platform for video production bears the Immaculata University logo. Two spacious bullpens with pitching mounds are just beyond the outfield fence.

In conjunction with the stadium, a paved fitness trail surrounds the stadium and links to a newly improved women's softball field, as well as the recently constructed Mighty Macs Training Facility.

Following the dedication ceremony, the Immaculata baseball team took on Eastern with the Mighty Macs defeating the Eagles, 6-1. This new chapter in Immaculata athletics began on March 9, 2011, with the first home baseball opener played against Arcadia.

Immaculata's Director of Capital Program Management, Kerry Jones, oversaw the construction; Matthew Luttrell, AIA, principal at AUM Architecture, served as the architect for the project; and the sports consultant was Joel Leider, vice president of Sports Plan Studio. Chester Valley Engineers played a significant role in the project through president and land development planner Robert Plucienik, PE, assisted by civil engineer Neal Camens, PE, and Harry Shreiner, director of construction management.
