Gold Rush - November/December 2013

Soccer We have an opportunity to upgrade our facilities for one of our most prolific programs. Our soccer players compete at the highest level nationally and in the strongest conference in the country, but their practice and game facilities are in need of critical renovations.

$

million

Resources Four million dollars will provide significant upgrades to game and practice facilities, including new irrigation and drainage technology to improve the playability of our fields.

Impact By investing in these upgrades, we will raise the quality of our fields to the standard for a perennial ACC Championship contender. We will also reduce the maintenance costs associated with groundskeeping and turf management. In addition, higher quality facilities contribute to a more competitive team and are an advantage in recruiting.

Field Hockey

Our goal is to provide our field hockey team, winner of three national championships and three ACC championships, with new turf that will improve playability and replace the aging field surface.

$ Resources

1

million

One million dollars will replace the turf.

Impact Not only will new turf improve playability for the field hockey team, it will do so for the many intramural and club sports that use the facility. A better field creates a better presentation of the program to recruits and keeps us on par with our competitors on a national level.
