"YSU’s sports facilities are well-maintained and designed to support multiple sporting events. The Watson and Tressel facility has been great to host early season lacrosse games in."
"YSU new lacrosse field indoor as well as outdoor are both beautiful facilities! Tressel spared no expense for these accommodations to this new team and it shows !"
"The Watson and Tressel Training Site is an amazing indoor facility available to all turf sports. Being able to play early spring lacrosse games indoors as well as practice during the winter is vital to the program. Farmers National Bank Field (outdoor field) had new turf put down in late 2024. "
"Youngstown State’s athletic facilities are well-maintained and consistently improving. The athletic department is clearly committed to investing in upgrades and keeping everything looking modern, clean, and professional. What I appreciate most is that improvements are not just talked about; they actually happen. From training spaces to locker rooms and common areas, there is a real effort to keep everything functional and looking brand new.
The WATTS indoor facility is incredible and is a huge selling factor for the program, especially in the winter. Being able to train and practice inside instead of shoveling snow or canceling sessions makes a massive difference for development, preparation, and overall morale.
The biggest strength is that the administration is proactive rather than reactive. Continuing to update and modernize spaces as technology and training methods evolve will only make the facilities even better, but overall, the commitment to improvement is obvious and appreciated."
