The Jacksonville Lacrosse Center is located adjacent to D.B. Milne Field, the home field for both teams on the Jacksonville University campus. Construction costs for the facility totaled $1.875 million.
The 8,600-square-foot building includes:
Ten offices for coaches, assistants and staff
Conference room and film room
Women’s locker room, restrooms and shower facilities
Men’s locker room, restrooms and shower facilities
Two large patios for fans to enjoy
“Our crews worked hard over the past few months to complete this project on schedule and in time for the upcoming lacrosse season,” said Richard Lovelace, Senior Vice President of Commercial Services at Stellar. “We were proud to team up with Jacksonville University to build this one-of-a-kind facility that will serve these two teams for years to come.”
Construction of the facility broke ground in June 2018.
