The university athletic complex is named for the family of Marvin and Nadene Steinert. Marvin Steinert was a trustee of the university from 1971 until 1981. In 1977 the Steinerts and their sons, Max, Randy, and Gary--all three of whom are alumni of Fresno Pacific University--donated money to purchase the land on which the complex is now located. It includes the Ramirez Soccer Field (named for Soccer Coach Jaime Ramirez), the Harold and Betty Haak Tennis Complex (named for former FPU President Harold Haak and his wife Betty), a track, and a baseball stadium.
