Hubert Jack Stadium/Charlotte Smith Field

    Dedicated in 1975, Hubert Jack Stadium was named for Hubert H. Jack, former Lock Haven football head coach from 1946-68 and head wrestling mentor from 1942-64.  Jack Stadium includes Charlotte Smith Field, an artificial turf playing surface, lights and an eight-lane track.
      The first game in the stadium was played on September 13, 1975, in front of a capacity crowd over 3,000 strong, as Lycoming College topped the Bald Eagles by a score of 23-0.  Hubert Jack Stadium was dedicated on September 20, 1975 before a game against Bloomsburg.
      Over the span of his 27 year coaching and teaching career at Lock Haven, Coach Jack built a 102-90-7 ledger on the gridiron, and an impressive 153-39-5 mark as the wrestling coach.

      Dedicated on September 9, 1995, Charlotte Smith Field was named for Dr. Charlotte E. Smith, former LHU professor of health and physical education, and the legendary head coach of field hockey (1945-72; 152-36-19), women’s basketball (1944-67; 89-33), and women’s lacrosse (1970-73; 16-1).

Tomlinson Center

        Continuing with LHU’s commitment to first class facilities, the new Tomlinson Center, an expansion that has modernized the locker room center at Hubert Jack Stadium, was dedicated in the fall of 2000.  It features a new state-of-the-art athletic training facility as well as a new football locker room area, and additional space for the field hockey, track and field programs, and visiting football teams.
      The expansion was initiated by a generous donation from T.R. “Tommy” Tomlinson (d. 2000), a 1940 graduate of Lock Haven State Teachers College.  A talented athlete, Tomlinson played football at Lock Haven after transferring from Pennsylvania State University, and also displayed his athletic prowess as a member of The Haven’s boxing team.  The facility is named “The Tomlinson Center” in his honor.
