Foundation
Field
In
1995, through a combined effort of
University, Foundation, and many other
friends and boosters, Bald Eagle baseball
played its first season on a field that was
truly home, Foundation Field. LHU’s
new baseball field was pegged out in 1994
and work began on Foundation land across the
river.
This
field, yet another “gem” in LHU’s
ever-growing list of renovations and
advancements under University President Dr.
Craig Dean Willis, is one of the finest in
the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
With professional quality clay mound and
infield areas, a warning track, batting
cages, bullpens, dugouts, a watering system
and an electronic scoreboard, LHU’s
baseball field has become a place where Bald
Eagle diamondmen look forward to playing
every day, whether that be in practice or in
a game.

Jack, former Lock Haven football head coach
from 1946-68 and head wrestling mentor from
1942-64.

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),

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.
