The athletics facilities at Misericordia University recently underwent major renovations which provide MU's student-athletes with some of the finest competition venues in the region.
The facilities - all located on campus - include the Anderson Center, Mangelsdorf Field at the Anderson Outdoor Athletics Complex, Tambur Field, Metz Field House, McGeehan Field, Anderson Softball Field and six tennis courts.
Since 1993, the Anderson Center has provided a home for the Cougars basketball, volleyball and swim teams.
The Anderson Center features a six-lane swimming pool, indoor track, racquetball courts, fitness center and an aerobic/dance studio.
The building attracts more than 75,000 visitors annually for recreational uses.
Mangelsdorf Field at the Anderson Athletic Complex was constructed in 2002 and serves as a home for the football, soccer, field hockey, lacrosse and track & field programs.
The Anderson Complex features a synthetic grass field and a six-lane synthetic track, with an eight-lane straightaway, which allow MU's student-athletes to compete even when weather conditions are less than ideal.
The Misericordia softball team has called Anderson Field home since 1992.
Named for the late Dr. Robert S. and Geraldine Ruth Daley Anderson, the Anderson Sports-Health Center, Anderson Athletic Complex and Anderson Fields are all tributes to their commitment to Misericordia University.
Mangelsdorf Field honors the dedication of the late Jack Mangelsdorf and Dorothy Mangelsdorf to MU and the region.
The Misericordia tennis complex opened in 2004 as part of a gift by the M & T Foundation.
Tambur Field, honoring the Robert Tambur family, was constructed in 2012 and will provide a new home for the MU baseball team.
McGeehan Field, named in honor of Mary Ellen McGeehan '46, opened in 2012 and provides a second artificial grass venue for the MU field hockey, soccer and lacrosse teams.
In addition, the John & Mary Metz Fieldhouse was constructed in 2012 and will provide meeting and locker room space for the MU football, soccer, field hockey, track & field, baseball and lacrosse teams.Â
The 21,750 square-foot facility is named for long time board of trustee member John Metz and his wife and recognizes their contributions to the MU community.
