Give to Athletics Facilities at University of Lynchburg
A note from Jon Waters, director of athletics
Thank you for showing your Hornet Pride and Passion through giving. We are committed to challenging our students daily in the classroom, in the community, and in competition. Your assistance will make it possible to strive for the highest levels of excellence as we build on such a proud heritage here at the university.
Giving options include the opportunity to give directly to a specific facility upgrade through the drop-down menu. Your support of our facility upgrade projects will enhance the experience for our student athletes and transform the fan experience for generations to come.
Specific areas of focus for the Facilities Upgrades programs at the moment include:
- Athletics Upgrades - Baseball Facilities
Improvements to Fox Field include moving the press box back from the backstop to allow for the installation of chairback seating and viewing areas that help upgrade Fox Field into a fan-friendly experience.
- Athletics Upgrades - Equestrian Facilities
Our equestrian program entered into a long-term partnership with a nearby farm owned by Patrick Henry Family Services, which is being transformed into a state-of-the-art collegiate riding facility, including footing upgrades in the ring, an increased number of stalls, and a new covered arena built on the property.
- Athletics Upgrades - Tennis Facilities
Relocation of our tennis courts will allow us to increase our number of courts from six to eight and provide a championship-level playing facility for our women's and men's tennis programs.
Please help us connect with other families or businesses that might be interested in supporting our students by helping us complete these projects by reaching out directly to me at waters.j@lynchburg.edu or to Shawn Wood in the Office of Advancement at wood_sp@lynchburg.edu.
