Softball Championship
FACILITY
Frank Cyrill Stadium
The stadium was constructed in stages as the field, dugouts, concrete seating area, and lights were installed first for the 2002 season. The press box was completed for the 2004 season, while stadium seating was completed in December of 2004. The result of Cyrill's vision and commitment to the University is Cyrill Stadium, one of the best college softball stadiums around.

Cyrill Stadium has received numerous awards since its completion. The facility earned the 2006 NFCA/TURFACE National Field Maintenance Award and was named the Sports Turf Manager's 2006 College Softball Field of the Year. In December of 2003, Cyrill Stadium was honored with a regional TURFACE Field Maintenance Award.
