SIMPSON FIELD This green space located behind McPhee showcases a new turf field along with track and field areas and access for the 25-sport module athletic program, intramural and club sport teams, and the Blugold Marching Band. Simpson field was upgraded significantly with the installation of artificial turf and lighting. This was the first phase of a project planned to include bleachers and other upgrades within the next few years.

BOLLINGER FIELDS Just south of the university’s Upper Campus is a 40-acre tract now known as the Bollinger Fields, renamed during the summer of 1998 in honor of Blugold Hall of Famer and former Assistant Chancellor Jim Bollinger. The site includes four softball fields, three soccer fields and a rugby field. The Bollinger soccer fields were renovated in 2010 with new dugouts and a scoreboard. The softball scoreboard and windscreens were added in 2017.
