NITTANY LION SOFTBALL PARK AND BEARD FIELD

41 ALL-BIG TEN SELECTIONS SINCE 2000 NITTANY LION ATHLETICS • GoPSUsports.com 5

A facility years in the making, state-of-the-art and second to none . That is what Nittany Lion Softball Park and Beard Field provide to the Penn State athletic community . With numerous donations and the Penn State’s Board of Trustees’ approval, construction of the $10 .2 million complex was completed in time for the 2011 season . The facility houses the Nittany Lion softball team and allows the program to compete with the best in the country .

The complex, which broke ground on March 28, 2010, features 1,084 permanent seats with fantastic sight lines, handicap-accessible seating, concession stands, permanent bathrooms and merchandise areas for fans . On the softball side of things a brand new field with irrigation, dugouts, batting cagesand tunnels, bullpens, scoreboard and a brand new lighting system make the new Nittany Lion Softball Park a collegiate softball gem .

The complex gives the team the ability to consolidate its resources into one area with new training rooms, media center, video room, study space, locker rooms and coaches’ offices all housed at the softballpark . Additionally, a new press area behind home plate was constructed, which further enhanced the amenities inside the stadium .

Key benefactors of the project allowed Nittany Lion Softball Park to take shape and get off the ground. The playing field was namedBeard Field in recognition of a generous donation from Lee and William Beard in October 2009 . The Penn State locker room was be named the Fran Vanden Locker Room, recognizing a gift from George and Frances Vanden . Another major donation came from the James M . and Margaret V . Stine Foundation to name both the Softball OfficeComplexandMediaCenter inhonorof the Stine Family . Art and Paige Nagle also contributed to the project and had one of the assistantcoaches’officesdontheirnames.

PennState’sfirstgameinitsnewhomewasMar . 26, 2011, a thrilling 8-5 victory over Wisconsin. Plenty of firsts were deliveredthat afternoon and none more memorable than Lisa Akamine’s inside-the-park home run as Penn State overcame a three-run deficit to win the inaugural game. For theseason, Penn State boasted an 11-8-1 recordonBeardFieldinitsfirstcampaign.Itwasthefirstwinningseasonathomesince2007 for the Nittany Lions, which coincided with PSU’s last trip to the NCAA Tournament before 2011 .

The stadium has already paid dividends for the Nittany Lion program as Penn State hosted the 2011 NCAA Regionals . The event marked the first time PSU hosted NCAAsoftball in 28 years as Oregon, Fordham and

Albany competed with Penn State for the right to go to the NCAA Super Regionals . In the three-day event, nearly 1,900 fans streamed through the turnstiles . Oregon would eventually be the team that would advance, but not before an exciting 16-inning midnight thriller between Penn State and Fordam . The Nittany Lions prevailed, 5-2, in the second-longest game in PSU history .

As if the NCAA event wasn’t exciting enough, Penn State then hosted the PIAA Softball Championships . Four games in one day on a sparkling afternoon in mid-June had nearly 3,000 fans attend. The first game of theday featured local powerhouse Philipsburg-Osceola and Brandywine Heights with a standing-room only crowd of 1,600 spectators . The PIAA is committed to Penn State through the 2014 event as Nittany Lion Softball Park earned rave reviews .

Nittany Lion Softball Park is located adjacent to the old Nittany Lion Field near the East Area dorms, on the corner of Park Avenue and University Drive. The new field facesthe Bryce Jordan Center, Mount Nittany and University Drive to the southeast, providing spectacular views and a gorgeous setting for all that attend softball games .

“Bill and I are both very pleased to be a small part of this very impressive facility. For us, the decision to give to this facility, to this program, was easy because one of our big passions is certainly the students of this university, but in particular the softball program. Our passion to help the softball program is because we’ve watched this program grow. There are some common links to this group [of donors]: Fran and George [Vanden], the Stine Family, Peter and Ann Nagle, Bill and I all have in common a link in believing that this is a program that deserves the typical Penn State, first-class facility to be successful.” Lee Beard, Lead Benefactor “Nittany Lion Softball park is one of the most beautiful facilities in the country. This great facility will certainly impact our recruiting efforts as it attracts some of the best talent in the country. We feel very blessed and are very excited to play on Beard Field. It is amazing to have such great support from the Beards.” Head Coach Amanda Lehotak

PENN STATE’S NCAA HISTORY The past 14 years have seen an unprecedented series of runs to the NCAA tournament in Penn State softball . The 2011 tournament represented the eighth bid in the past 14 years for the Nittany Lions and the 10th overall .

From 2000 until 2007, the Nittany Lions made seven appearances . In 2005 and 2006, Penn State was a pair of wins away from reaching the Super Regionals, but fell to Texas A&M and Arizona State, respectively .

Prior to 2000, the Lions reached the NCAA Tournament twice as a member of the Atlantic 10 Conference under former head coach Sue Rankin .

The 2011 tournament was the firsttime PSU has hosted a regional since 1983 when Louisiana Tech visited Happy Valley for a trip to the College World Series . The ‘83 edition of the competition was just the second ever NCAA Tournament following the AIAW Championships, which former head coach Robin Petrini won twice at Utah State (1980-81) .

Ultimately, Penn State once again fell two wins short of a Super Regionals performance, but celebrated a successful season at home . Penn State advanced to the regional finalafter a grueling two-game elimination day featuring a 16-inning marathon victory over Fordham, 5-2 .

The Lady Techsters swept the Lions in 1983, a similar fate Penn State would face against perennial power Adelphi in 1985, dropping a pair of 2-0 games in New York .

The Nittany Lions have posted back-to-back NCAA Tournament wins on three separate occasions–2001 vs . Cornell and Southern Miss; 2002 vs . Boston University and Princeton; 2006 vs . Long Island and at Hofstra .

Petrini guided Penn State to eight NCAA Tournament appearances garnering a 12-20 record in the process . In 2011, PSU was one of three Big Ten schools to make NCAA Regionals, joining perennial powerhouse Michigan and Indiana .
